Marketing Badges

You can place Marketing Badges on your website landing pages to demonstrate the comprehensive quality of your courses to prospective customers.

These badges are fully verified by us. Clicking the LearningSuite Badge opens an official LearningSuite website listing all metrics related to your course, as well as company information.

This is a completely new and unique way to strengthen your target audience's trust.

Marketing Badges are perfect for the following purposes:

• Confirming the scope of your online course to prospective customers.
• Displaying the scope of your internal employee training on the careers page.
• Officially confirming the content of courses used as lead magnets.

Text Submissions 2.0

Rich text submissions now possible:

It is now possible to write rich text. What does that mean? Members can send you formatted text, including headings, bullet points, and formatting. This means you can now use text submissions for more complex use cases—in theory, you could even use it for a German school assignment.

Improved comment mechanics

You can now comment on individual text passages, similar to Google Docs. To do this, as a trainer, simply select the desired section in the submission and then press the comment button. This allows you to provide precise feedback and show Members exactly where there is still room for improvement.

Fullscreen review for video submissions

There is also a major new feature for video submissions that makes evaluating and commenting on videos even easier. You can now open submitted videos in fullscreen mode. This opens our new video review pop-up, where you can see the video at maximum size while still being able to submit comments accurate to the second.

To ensure no information is missing, the task name and description, as well as the Member's added note, have been included in the top-right corner. With this feature, we want to further improve the experience for trainers so they can provide Members with the best possible feedback.

Further improvements to submissions

The comment mechanics have also received several improvements. On the one hand, the text field has received a design update; on the other hand, we have added a new feature:

Internal notes

With internal notes, you can write comments that can only be viewed by trainers. This allows you to document important information, such as observations about the Member, so you can better address learners' individual needs and capabilities.

Comments on file submissions

For file submissions, it is now also possible to comment on individual files separately. For example, if you create a submission in which five images are to be uploaded, you can now address and comment on each individual image separately.

Further improvements

Links can now also be used in comments and in additional explanations from Members. They are visually highlighted.

Open user pop-ups from anywhere

It is often important to be able to access user information at specific moments. For example, when you are reviewing someone's submission or looking at a person's statistics in a course.

That is exactly why you can now click on the name next to any user avatar, which opens the user pop-up from there.

Element search in the editor

You can now find element search at the very top of the editor's left sidebar. It allows you to find content quickly and easily.

Here are some tips for getting the most out of search:

• Press Ctrl+K on your keyboard (on Windows) or ⌘ + K (on macOS) to open search instantly at any time
• Once a search term has been entered, you can use Tab or the arrow keys to switch between the found elements
• To insert an element, you can use drag and drop as usual or simply press Enter to insert it immediately where you stopped working

Feel free to try out search—once you get used to it, creating content becomes much faster :)

New element: Sorting task

With the new interactive element, the sorting task, you can check even more effectively whether your Members have truly understood the knowledge conveyed. In this element, Members must move the elements into the correct order.

New element: Hub linking

With Hub linking, just like with content linking, you now have the option to link Hubs directly from the editor.

Style settings for images

You now have the option to make various style adjustments to images in the editor. You can now deactivate the fullscreen button or show and hide the outer border.

Additionally, for illustrations such as SVG files or PNG files with transparent backgrounds, you can adjust the background color.

3 new integrations in the editor

We have added three new integration options in the editor:

At the very bottom of the editor, under the "Integrations" tab, you will now find the option to integrate HubSpot, Typeform, or JotForm forms to collect data from your Members.

Further improvements:

• When modules appear in multiple courses, this is now displayed in global search
• The code editor for custom code has been redesigned
• Dark mode has been optimized and improved in several areas
• Submission elements now trigger the style panel no matter where you click within the submission
• In the settings, under "My LearningSuite", you can now activate the LearningSuite Badge, which is displayed to Members in the bottom-left corner of the sidebar.
• Transcripts for videos can now be regenerated if the AI has made an error in speech recognition
• Videos in the editor now have a setting to lock the playback speed
• Major performance update for submissions: submissions now load in just a few milliseconds, even with several hundred thousand entries
• You now have the option to copy all elements and insert them into any lesson within your platform.
• The bullet point list can now also be indented up to 9 levels
• Numerous bug fixes & optimizations

We look forward to your feedback, which you can send us in our Facebook community or via chat in the HelpCenter.

Your LearningSuite Team!
