Tassl 1.8 Released -- Assignments, Exams, and More!

Tassl v1.8 went out last night -- this is a big release! This version of Tassl is the first that allows you to collaborate and share information with other students in your classes. By clicking on the course boxes on your schedule, you can drill into content for that course. Here's an overview of what's new:

Course Wall
The first thing you'll notice when you click on a course is the Course Wall.


This is a great place to post one-off questions or updates about the class.

Course Info
The Course Info page lets you see at a glance all the section information for a course.


This also includes links to the Facebook profiles for everyone in each section. Beyond that, it includes the times, locations, and professors for each section, if available.

Assignments & Exams
You can now post your course assignments and exams on Tassl! This will make it easy for you to see at a glance what you need to be working on in a course.

If you post an assignment or an exam, it will be visible to everyone who has added that course. Tassl allows you to specify various information about assignments and exams, such as what kind they are and how much effort you think they will entail. Other students can go in and update this information if it's inaccurate. Also, each assignment or exam has a Wall for collaboration!

Discussions
For discussions that get more involved than the Course Wall, you can now also post Discussion Topics for a course. The discussions work just like the Course Wall, but are isolated to a specific topic.

Look for more features coming soon like these that will allow you to quickly see at a glance what is going on in your courses!
