The newest Class for Teams release will begin rolling out today, November 7, 2024.
Class product enhancements for the November release include three new ways to easily share content:
Google Drive and Microsoft Office 365 Integration - Class now supports launching Google Drive and Microsoft Office 365 files within sessions, with native viewing and annotation capabilities. You can find this in Collaborate > Files.
Files 2.0 - The new Files now integrates all file types including .ppt, .doc, .pdf, .xls, .jpeg, .png, Google Docs, and Microsoft Office 365 files for easier access and management. Files 2.0 will now default to Instructor visible only. To allow a Learner to access a File without an instructor, mark it as a Learner Resource.
Learner Resources - Instructors can mark Files as Learner Resources, controlling learner access as needed. Previously uploaded Files will all be automatically marked as Learner Resources so Learners will not lose access to them.
Files 2.0 will be enabled by default. The Microsoft and Google Integrations will be off by default and can be turned on for the institution in the Class Administrative Settings.
