The quiz details page that is part of the Grades tab now provides improved quiz status information. Instructors can clearly see when quizzes are in-progress, completed and when students have abandoned quizzes by opening tabs or closing the browser mid-quiz. These same updates hold true for the module test.

Our getting started videos for the Instructor have been updated to include two new videos. The first video provides an overview of the entire learn.aeseducation.com system. The second video includes more information on our Catalog tab.

Instructors will see the following improvements to quizzes and tests in many modules:

• An increased number of novel questions across assessments, in order to reduce memorization and heighten student performance.
• True/false questions in quizzes and tests have been replaced with multiple-choice questions, in order for students to more-accurately demonstrate their understanding. Non-assessed true/false questions will remain within curriculum lessons as a way for students to gauge their comprehension prior to a quiz.
• The Grades tab has a new view that makes it easier for instructors to see quiz and test grades for all students for a specific module.
