Release Notes

Below are the improvements that are being made available as part of this release:

• The Class Chat tool has been updated to improve the auto-scroll experience in sessions where many messages are being sent in rapid succession
• The Class app can now be maximized while sharing screen to allow for managing session activity and shared app content (e.g. Powerpoint) at the same time
• Instructors can now use Proctor / Collaboration View and Share Screen at the same time to allow for more fluid collaboration with session participants
• Participants who are using privacy mode will now have their video feed disabled when session recordings are started to ensure that their video is not captured in the recording
• Class users can now be required to log in from the Class launch page to limit the need for in-session verification. This configuration is managed from the Class admin portal.
• Class users will now see a dedicated tab for all session recordings, including those that are initiated outside of a scheduled session time, from the Class LTI home screen
• Several improvements have been made to the Class platform APIs, including better support for scheduling deferred classes, updating classes, and deleting classes. Full details can be found at https://developer.class.com.
