Fresh face and new features for iLearn

Heading into Session 2, the Learning and Teaching Centre (LTC) are keen to let staff know that while most fundamentals of iLearn are roughly the same, there are some fresh changes that will improve design and usability.

The big ticket item is that it is mobile friendly-er. The new theme adapts to mobile devices and is more responsive on smaller screens. However more complicated work like building your unit is best done on your desktop.

There are a number of navigation and design changes that are outlined in a recent post in the LTC’s Teche blog, including how to apply the new theme.

The iLearn team will be on hand to help you with the new look and features of iLearn at a Drop-in Clinic in the lead up to Session 2. You can always get more out of iLearn, so check out the website for more training opportunities.
