Enhanced 1EdTech Common Cartridge importing of randomized choices and objectives
We have enhanced the 1EdTech Common Cartridge (CC) importer to better support:
- Learning objectives with metadata.
- Discussion resources.
- Resource descriptors.
Buzz fixes
In this release, we also:
- Improved the detail provided in the error message used to communicate that an end user has an unstable internet connection that has caused a server call to fail.
- Fixed an issue in the activity player where, after a student posted to a Blog or Journal activity, the completion checkmark would not show until browser refresh. The completion checkmark now appears immediately after posting.
- Removed the now-deprecated text messages terminology from the Domain > Features screen.
- [QC] Fixed an issue in the Needs grading screen where the tooltips activities in the left panel would appear in the wrong place if the activity had a long title.
- Fixed a Dark color scheme style issue in the Editor > Syllabus screen's warning message.
- Fixed an issue on the Grade editor > Score history screen where the score status text was sometimes getting clipped.

Try branching Video stories in Dawn!
Branching Video story interactions in Dawn can be created to allow learners to choose their own pathways when viewing and interacting with video content. At key moments in Video stories, learners are given multiple choice questions and their answers determine what content they see next. This makes instructional videos more engaging, allowing learners to explore according to their own interests, knowledge, and needs!
