Release notes for Jan 19, 2023

These notes provide information about Engageli 3.0.32, including new and improved features, updates, and resolved issues.

New Feature

  • Self-Paced Polls
    • Instructors can improve the asynchronous experience by adding Engageli polls to course PDFs for learners to engage in a Playback Room on their own time (independent of a class recording). 
    • Instructors can access the results in an Admin Portal Self-Paced Polls dashboard for grading and tracking. 

Updates

  • Engageli iOS Application for Learners
    • Updated Engageli iOS app for learners is now available for download in the Apple App Store. 
  • Engageli Customer Terms of Service
    • Engageli makes no guarantees for screen color changes and accessibility when the platform is skinned with custom logos and colors (for users with access to this function).
    • Learners aged 13-18 are permitted to use the platform under certain conditions. (Please contact your Engageli Partner Success Manager for more details.)
  • Engageli Admin Portal "CoInstructor" guest links are now only accessible for Super Admin roles. Instructors can no longer access these links but can instead use regular guest links and promote users as needed in class.

Improvements

  • Offline attendance is calculated based on the length of the class recording rather than the live class time. 
  • “Seating Arrangement” drop-down menu reordered for ease of use.
  • Sound Reactions disabled by default, which instructors can easily change within the classroom.
  • “Generate public room link” button removed from the Admin Portal. 
  • Overlay gallery functionality removed from the Playback Room to reduce confusion with the Tablemates gallery and panel.
  • When a poll ends, you should go back to the screen from where the poll was started.
  • YouTube clip/video stops when changing direct-screen-to (by menu or by adding a new “mode”)
  • Image and QR codes generated for uploaded media (MP4, MOV, and YouTube links) now work across classrooms. Instructors can share uploaded media more easily.
  • Removed screenshot functionality from the Chat.
  • Improved Chat expansion for long messages.
  • Learners no longer see Deactivated classes on the Self-Service page.
