In the latest release of Learnosity Voice (now on version 3.3.0), there are a large number of improvements based on feedback from teachers using it. A huge thanks to all the teachers those who have provided feedback.

Here are the key changes:

Renamed “Exams” to “Activities”

Exams was often confusing as it had the connotation of an end of term/year examination. To make it more user friendly we have renamed it to Activity. You may still use activities for revision or assessment purposes.

Assigning multiple activities

One of the consistent requests we have received was to provide more control to teachers to assign work to students. By adding some changes to the dial in menu and in the teachers area this is now possible. To assign activities to a class simply:

• Select Students and Classes
• Select the class you want to work with
• Select the Activities tab
• Drag activities from the left hand side into a slot on the right hand side.
• Press “Update” to save your selections.

These will now be available to students when they dial in.

Changes to dial plan

When a student dials in, they are now presented with and option to select an assigned activity from 1 to 9. Students can see the list of activities assigned to them from their student site home page.

Student home page shows assigned activities

When a student logs in they will see the list of activities that they have been assigned by their teacher. Assigned activities may be for revision or for assessment depending on how the teacher wishes to use it.

Ability to remove sessions

Teachers now have the ability to remove sessions. They may want to remove them because they are incomplete or because the student did multiple attempts and they only want to keep the best one. At the bottom of the session marking page there is now a “Delete Session” button.

Lots of other fixes and improvements

There are numerous other little fixes and improvements.

We hope you enjoy the improvements and please keep letting us know how we can make it better.
