We have shipped a few enhancements to make the User Experience within IllumiDesk more user-friendly!
These include:
  • Improved performance for the Auto-Save feature, which reduces lag when editing Activities
  • Jupyter Servers (Kernels) now expire by default after 60 minutes instead of 15 minutes. This helps situations where users were forced to restart their kernel and lose state after more than 15 minutes of inactivity.
  • Component list in Activity Editor is now foldable which allows users improved discoverability of components by category
  • The main navigation on the left within the Activity Editor is now scollable when the activity list overflows the web brower's vertical limit
  • Campus Admins can now more easily create user groups to manage user groups at their discretion, such as Instructor and Student user groups
  • Activity names can be changed at the breadcrumb level within the Activity Editor
Thanks everyone for your awesome feedback!

We’re thrilled to unveil an exciting improvement to the "Create a Course with AI" wizard that streamlines your course creation process. You now have more formatting options available right from the start, including Banner Image, Title Slide/Image, Lesson Body, Expansion Panels, and Flip Cards. This means you can set up and format your content immediately, rather than adding these elements after AI generates the course. Enjoy a more seamless and efficient course creation experience with these enhanced options!
