Set release conditions for open or started and for non-assessment content items
Anthology have expanded release conditions to include activity on items including non-assessment content. This enhancement allows conditions to be based on whether a student has opened or started content items such as documents, media, or course links. Instructors can now control access based on whether a student has opened or started a prerequisite content item.
This has been a feature that was requested from user at Edinburgh and helps to expand the ways that course content can be arranged.
Learning Module Table of Contents – Instructor View
Anthology have now enabled the table of contents view within Learning Modules to be available to Instructors to replicate the previously released student view. This allows instructors to see a small panel with the contents of the folder listed to make navigation easier.
