Hello everyone,
The following version of Totara Learn has now been released.
- Release evergreen 20190221
This release contains a new feature, Seminar Attendance tracking.
We were hoping to get this into last weeks evergreen release, however it was not ready to our stands at that point in time.
As a one off we have decided to make a second evergreen release including this feature, which has now met our standards.
The following is the changelog entry for this release.
Release Evergreen (21st February 2019)
Key: + Evergreen only
New features:
TL-12692 + Added the ability to track attendance at the session level of seminars
Previously it was only possible to track attendance at the event level of
a seminar. With this improvement, attendance can be tracked for each
individual session within an event. This includes:
* A new seminar setting, 'Session attendance tracking', which allows trainers
to record attendance for each session of a seminar event. The recorded
session attendance is summarised on the event attendance form, allowing
trainers to use it as the basis for setting an overall attendance status
for each attendee.
* A new seminar setting, 'Mark attendance at', which determines when trainers
are allowed to begin taking attendance for an event or session.
* A new attendance status, 'Unable to attend', which provides an option for
trainers to mark an attendee as not having attended a session or event, but
without marking them as a 'no show'. The 'Restrict subsequent sign-ups to'
setting now includes 'Unable to attend' as one of its options.
* The seminar events dashboard has been consolidated into a single list of
sessions and events, with a filter allowing participants to see all events,
or only those that are upcoming, in progress, or in the past.
* If 'Session attendance tracking' is enabled, a per-session 'Attendance tracking'
column appears on the events dashboard, allowing trainers to see at a glance
which sessions are marked or are ready to be marked.
Kind regards
Sam Hemelryk
