itslearning-2025.1.5

Product updates

Admins can under Features and security enable a read-only mode of the table view for users.

Change password option hidden when native login is disabled

When "Allowed to use standard itslearning login" disabled for the user with a profile or policy setting, the option to change the password will no longer be visible in "Your settings". This change eliminates confusion for users who authenticate through an external system and do not use native login credentials.

Product updates

Ondersteuning voor Eduplaces SSO

itslearning ondersteunt nu Eduplaces Single Sign-On (SSO). Deze nieuwe integratie stelt gebruikers in staat om naadloos log in te loggen op itslearning met hun Eduplaces login gegevens, wat zorgt voor een meer gestroomlijnde en efficiƫnte login-ervaring.

Deze nieuwe SSO dienst is beschikbaar voor onze Duitse scholen.

Recente Google-documenten stopgezet

Om de beveiliging te verbeteren, hebben we onlangs de permissies verlaagd die de Google Drive picker nodig heeft. Deze is nu beperkt tot de bestanden die een gebruiker heeft toegevoegd aan itslearning.

Een nadeel hiervan is dat dit ook de functionaliteit beperkt om snel een bestand waar je recent aan hebt gewerkt toe te voegen aan de bestanden die ook zijn toegevoegd aan itslearning. Deze functionaliteit was te vinden in de planner en in leerpaden.

Since this functionality already had low usage and with this change would become less useful, we have decided to discontinue this functionality.

Bestanden kunnen nog steeds worden toegevoegd door de Google Drive picker te openen.

Made a improvement to "recent submissions" in the student profile card. Previously it would not show an update when the student resubmitted an assignment that was previously submitted. It now does.

Product updates

Beperkte rechten voor Google Drive picker

Google has introduced a new permission scope for Google Drive they strongly recommend partners like us to use. The old scope gave us access to all files on the user's Drive. The new scope restricts our permissions to the files the user selects in the Google Drive picker. You will see the new permission scope when you give consent while connecting your Google account to your itslearning account. The changed scope does not affect any files that have already been added to itslearning.

Functionality wise the only difference can be seen where you can pick a "Recent " Google Drive file, which can for example be done in the planner. This used to include all files that were recently added or changed on user's Google Drive, but now is limited to the files that have been added to itslearning before. Given the low use of this Recent functionality and its downgraded usefulness, we will remove it in an upcoming release.

Note that the reduced permission scope will only affect users that haven't given consent yet, or that want to disconnect and reconnect their Google account.

Better feedback when IM is disabled for users

Het is mogelijk om Berichten voor afzonderlijke gebruikers uit te schakelen. Voor deze situatie hebben we de terugkoppeling verbeterd die docenten krijgen als ze een bericht proberen te sturen naar een gebruiker die geen toegang heeft tot de Berichtenfunctionaliteit. De terugkoppeling is verbeterd voor 1:1 berichten, groepsgesprekken en vakgesprekken.

Admins: Simplifying "View as student" in Courses

For admininstrators only - in a previous relase we simplified the "view as student" option in courses so the course owner (e.g. the course teacher) can only view the course as a student, and not as any other profile. As such we have removed the "View as other profile" from the profiles page. There is no action for administrators.

Public link in planner

When using public link in a self-paced course, users will navigate to "Topics" in stead of the tab "All plans", so that they easily get an overview of all the course content.
