For the product updates of 2023, see Product Updates 2023.

In the past days we updated most of the learning analytics pages with a new UI. Within this new UI also a new feature is introduced: filtering on multiple groups at the same time.

This allows you to select multiple groups at the same and view the subject progress/mastery or test exercise answers for the students in those groups. This feature is currently available on the following pages:

In the coming weeks, this feature will also be added to the Test Dashboard Page allowing you to filter the test results and analytics for multiple groups at the same time.

As a next step in our migration efforts we have deployed an updated version of the Unevaluated Test Answers page.

Within Grasple there is an option to view the answers given in a test which could not be automatically graded (e.g. because the student used invalid Latex which could not be parsed). We updated the page which allows the teachers in a course to check which answers are unevaluated and manually grade them.

You can read more about how this functionality works here.

As a next step in our migration efforts we have deployed an updated version of the Course Test Exercise Analytics page.

This page allows you get a more in depth insight into an exercise within a test, such that you can analyse why for example students are struggling with that specific exercise.

This new UI allows you to filter the given answers on multiple groups at the same time. In addition, the page is using newer accessibility guidelines and have both UX and performance improvements.

As a next step in our migration efforts we have deployed an updated version of the Course Students Upload page.

This page allows you to upload large group of students and assign them directly to a course group as well. This page now has better validation of your uploaded CSV file, allowing you to quickly construct a valid CSV and add your students to the course.

If you want to learn more about adding students to a course, you can find more information here.

As a next step in our migration efforts we have deployed an updated version of the Course Dashboard, also known as "Monitor".

This page is the central hub of the teacher. Here you can monitor the course by viewing how each student is progressing, which other teachers and tutors are involved in your course and learning insights about each subject within your course. These pages are now updated to the new UI.

This new UI allows you to better sort data in the tables shown, hide/show columns and filter on multiple groups at the same time (for both students and subjects). In addition, the pages are using newer accessibility guidelines and have both UX and performance improvements.

At Grasple we aim to make math and statistics accessible for all. Within this mission we also continuously improve the accessibility of our platform for anyone wanting to learn math and statistics.

Based on the WCAG guidelines and feedback from users we further improved the math answer box accessibility for screen readers and non-mouse users. This updates makes it both easier to navigate between the help buttons to insert math and receive more unambiguous explanations (via the screen reader) when using those buttons to enter the mathematical answer to a question.

As a next step in our migration efforts we have deployed an updated version of the Course Edit page. On this page you can change the name, code, and description of your course. The page is now updated with a new style more inline with the current course landing page, and we moved the settings to a separate block to make it easier to determine what students will see.
​

In addition, this page offers you a first change to experience our new html-content editor. The description field of the course is now editable via a completely redesigned editor which provides a better editing experience, especially related to tables and images. Feel free to try this editor out and provide us with any feedback you have.

The 'Course Student Monitor' page has been updated with a look and feel similar to the course page. The icon legend makes it easy to check the exact meaning of the various icons, and the accessibility mode from the course page is also present.

Please let us know if you have any feedback!

As part of our ongoing migration efforts we have deployed an updated version of the 'Start test session' page. This update should provide a better experience by loading faster, and bringing the style of the page in line with the styling of the other pages involved in taking a test.

In addition, a new message block in the preview page of a test makes it more clear how the page looks inside your course, and provides a more convenient way to start a preview of a test session if the actual test is closed for students.

We hope you enjoy this update, if you have any feedback please let us know. If you want to know more about how tests work within the platform check out this collection of articles.
