A round-up of all improvements and changes to the Buzz platform in version 3.0.33, available on January 4, 2018.
New Buzz UI
During the summer of 2017, we released a new Buzz UI, giving you the same features and functionality with a cleaner, simpler user experience!
The release notes in this section pertain only to those using the new Buzz UI.
New Buzz UI updates
In this release, we updated the Student To-do List on the student Home page and in the Teacher's Gradebook (when the teacher clicks on a student's name) to reflect the new Buzz UI.
New Buzz UI fixed issues
In this release, we:
- Fixed an issue that would cause the Grading period picker to revert to All periods after filtering the content by group twice.
- Updated the text that describes the Enable email feature switch for accuracy.
- Updated the Editor > Activity List screen to immediately apply changes made to an activity's grading period with Bulk edit; previously, users would have to refresh the page.
- Fixed an issue that would cause Buzz to hang when navigating from a Gradebook screen for a course with Grading Periods to a Gradebook page of a course without Grading periods.
- Added missing text for the Show me what the student sees checkbox in the Gradebook screen.
- Fixed an issue with showing the submission columns in the Activity Grader.
- Updated the way "time spent" is reported to account for courses with Grading Periods and Categories. See
