Improving the Timed Assignments User Experience – Platform Release v2.0.20

We’ve been rolling out a lot of improvements to our platform lately, focusing on the user experience for students, while making grading and assignments simpler for both course authors and instructors.

This week’s biggest improvements center around timed assignments. Timed assignments now include a visible countdown timer, which should prove more convenient for students. We’ve also introduced an optional feature that will prevent students from turning in timed assignments late, an improvement that should ease the burden of instructors with very large classes.
