What’s New

• Can you speak a little slower, please? Our Text-to-Speech feature in Online Testing can! Students can adjust the speed when using this feature. And since we have support for Spanish, items can be read in Spanish too.
• Lost in translation no more: ISI folks, you can now apply custom translations in Spanish to custom forms. You can use your own translations or use Google Translate available in the tool.

What’s Improved

• LightingGrader: released new camera grader which increases speed and resolution.
• Power to the Portal: ISI – major enhancements to our Online Course Requests feature in the student portal – it looks great, it’s responsive, and it’s easy to use!
  
  
• Game Changer Alert for Business Intelligence Tool (BIT) users – you can now have custom input controls, AND keep the default student scope selector, interactive charts, and have multi-select input controls. For example, you can now create a single report and switch between, subject, year, assessment within the same report.
