Enhancements
Product | Summary | Release note |
|---|---|---|
Professional Learning | Seamless Username Updates: Consistent Course access across Professional Learning and Premium Library | Enhanced the username update process in Professional Learning to seamlessly sync with the premium library. This improvement ensures users enjoy a smooth experience by maintaining consistent access to registered courses, without authentication errors or unexpected login redirects. |
Professional Learning | Improved Accessibility: Enhanced Text Contrast on My Badges and Badge Admin Dashboard | Some text elements on the My Badges and Badge Admin Dashboard screens lacked the required color contrast ratio, making them hard to read for users with low vision. We adjusted the contrast ratios to meet WCAG 2.2 level AA accessibility standards under criterion 1.4.3, improving readability for all users. |
Professional Learning | Effortless Attendance: Secure QR Code Check-In, No App Needed | Users can check in for attendance by scanning a secure QR code with their phone’s camera—no app download needed. Instructors and admins can generate and print encrypted QR codes for each class time from the section roster, supporting multiple daily check-ins. After scanning, learners must log in to confirm enrollment before marking attendance. The system notifies users if attendance is already recorded or if the section is locked. This process improves security and convenience for staff and students. |
Professional Learning | Searchable dropdown improves component selection and certification accuracy | Replaced the standard dropdown with a searchable one in the External Credit Request (ECR) creation process. This allows learners and administrators to quickly find and select the correct components, reducing certification reporting errors. |
Professional Learning | Streamlined Attendance Updates: Faster Credit for Learners | A note on the attendance tab reminds instructors that marking attendance does not grant credit; they must update roster status. An "Update learners based on attendance" button now appears for eligible users, providing quick access to the roster tab to complete the process and ensure learners receive credit. |
Professional Learning | District Info Now Included in Roster Export for Instructors | Instructors can now view district information directly in the roster export without ad-hoc rights. The District field appears in a clear format, supporting state systems that group districts. Generate a roster report by navigating to Manage sections > Roster > Export roster |
Professional Learning | Custom Email Recipients for Payment Notifications Now Available for Admins | Administrators can now specify email recipients for "Payment Added by User" and "Payment Added by Admin" notifications to stay informed when a payment is added. This configuration field is available in both the Legacy and PdAdmin interfaces, matching the setup for low-enrollment emails. Other payment notifications remain unchanged. |
Professional Learning | Transcript Print Layout Gets a Visual Upgrade for Cleaner, Left-Aligned Details | Improved the transcript print layout by aligning person data and print date to the left and placing the image on the right, ensuring a cleaner and more visually appealing presentation consistent with the configuration instructions. |
Professional Learning | Fixed LMS integration course launch link after completion | LMS integration courses now display a "View Again" launch link in My Courses after completion, even for instructor-led courses. This change ensures users can access their registered LMS courses directly from the platform, regardless of course type. |
Resolved issues
Product | Summary | Release note |
|---|---|---|
Perform Enterprise | PDF Print View Fixed to Prevent Text Overlap | Fixed text overlap in the PDF view of Evaluation Plans. The print form now displays text clearly and correctly in PDFs. |
Perform Enterprise | Resolved Access Rights Error for Formal Observations | Users attempting to start a formal observation received an access rights error that prevented the operation. This issue is now resolved. Troubleshooting steps included framework and observation rebuilds. |
Professional Learning | Improved Error Handling for Invoice Viewing in Payment Administration | Improved error handling has been implemented for invoice viewing in Payment Administration. If an invoice from authorize.net lacks its transaction record, users now see a clear message explaining the issue and suggested next steps, instead of a 500 error. Additionally, invoices created during failed authorize.net communications are deleted automatically to prevent incomplete records. |
Professional Learning | Instructor Notifications Restored for Course Withdrawals | Course instructors did not receive email notifications when users withdrew from courses because automatic withdrawals bypassed instructor approval and alerts. The issue was traced to system settings and corrected to notify instructors upon withdrawal. |
Perform Enterprise | PDF Export Formatting Fixed for Teacher Evaluations | Fixed formatting issues in mass PDF exports of Teacher Effectiveness Plans to ensure correct display for all users. |
Professional Learning | Streamlined Class Times Dialog: Close Pop-Up with a Single Click | Fixed an issue where the class times dialog in the course catalog required multiple clicks to close. The dialog now closes with a single click, improving the experience when viewing class times for course sections. |
Professional Learning | Accurate Instructor Name Reporting Restored in Ad-Hoc Reports | Fixed an issue in the Ad-Hoc Reporting (Super-User) tool where entering an instructor’s name returned zero results due to incorrect encoding of the instructor field. The system now processes instructor names correctly, ensuring accurate report results. |
Professional Learning | SCORM Course Updates Now Instantly Available for Incomplete or Registered Learners | Fixed an issue where updated SCORM files did not display correctly. Learners with registered or incomplete status now automatically see the latest SCORM course version; others access the previous version. The SCORM configuration page clarifies this behavior, and a background job applies these changes retroactively to existing courses. |
Professional Learning | Accurate Timestamps Restored for CSV Reports in Professional Learning | The “Date Submitted” and “Date Generated” columns in CSV reports showed future times instead of correct timestamps for multiple users. This issue, confirmed and traced to a time discrepancy despite the system set to system’s timezone settings, has been resolved. The columns now display accurate submission and generation times. |
Professional Learning | Group Type Permissions Now Save Correctly for All PDAdmin Districts | Fixed an issue where changes to Group Type permissions under Site-Based Rights did not save for all PDAdmin districts. Permissions in other areas, such as PD Playlist, remained unaffected. The problem is resolved, ensuring updates to Group Type permissions save correctly. |
