New Certificate Element

We are pleased to announce an important update to the Teachfloor platform: the Certificate Element.

This new feature enables instructors to craft and distribute certificates to learners, thereby enhancing the educational journey with increased engagement and a sense of accomplishment. Certificates are not merely recognition tokens; they are potent incentives that confirm the learners' efforts and serve as concrete proof of their newly acquired knowledge and competencies. With the Certificate Element, you can now provide learners with a rewarding sense of accomplishment, boosting their confidence and driving them to excel further.

Getting started with issuing certificates is straightforward.

Just follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the desired course for which certificates are to be issued.
  2. Click on the "Add Element" button located in the sidebar and select the certificate element to incorporate it into the course.
  3. Customize the certificate by adjusting the text, colors, and background images in the certificate element settings to attain the preferred design.
  4. Ensure the appropriate prerequisites have been established to release the certificate once learners complete the necessary activities.

Achievement Sharing:

Once learners have generated their certificates, they have the option to share their accomplishments on social media platforms. Additionally, they can download their certificates as PDFs, providing versatility in the utilization and display of their certificates.

The Certificate Element from Teachfloor introduces a new layer of engagement and achievement to courses. By acknowledging learners' accomplishments with personalized certificates, a tangible symbol of their dedication and hard work is provided. The result is enhanced motivation, increased engagement, and a more fulfilling learning journey.

Are you ready to upgrade your courses and empower your learners with customized certificates? Explore the functionalities of the Certificate Element and elevate your educational offerings with Teachfloor.

Bulk Assign Students to Assistants via CSV

We are excited to introduce a new feature that simplifies user management in your courses - the ability to bulk assign students to assistants via CSV. This enhancement is designed to save you time and effort, especially when you have a large number of students and assistants to manage.

Imagine having dozens or even hundreds of students and assistants to assign within your courses. Manually assigning them one by one could be time-consuming and prone to errors. With our bulk assignment feature, you can now handle this task seamlessly by uploading a CSV file.

How It Works

  1. Prepare Your CSV File: Create a CSV file that includes a list of students and their corresponding assistants. This file can easily be generated from spreadsheet software like Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets.
  2. Upload and Assign: Once your CSV file is ready, head to the specific course where you need to perform the assignments. Use our intuitive interface to upload the CSV file. Our system will automatically process the data and assign the students to their respective assistants.
  3. Effortless Management: You no longer need to manually match students with assistants one by one. This bulk assignment process ensures accuracy and eliminates the potential for oversight.

To start using the bulk assignment feature, navigate to the appropriate course and look for the CSV assignment assistant option in the member page.

At Teachfloor, we have always been committed to providing a seamless and inclusive learning experience to our diverse community of educators and learners. With Localization, we are taking a giant leap forward to break language barriers and reach learners around the world.

When Localization is enabled, the entire Teachfloor interface, including admin and instructor sections, as well as student areas, will be automatically translated into the selected language.

Supported Languages:

To start, we are introducing support for five major languages: English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, and Italian. These languages have been strategically chosen to cater to a wide range of global audiences. However, this is only the beginning! We are actively working to add more languages to our repertoire, ensuring that Teachfloor truly becomes a global platform for learning.

Reaching Learners Worldwide:

The benefits of Localization go beyond simply translating the user interface. By breaking down language barriers, educators can now connect with learners from different cultures and backgrounds. This creates a more inclusive and engaging learning environment, where learners feel comfortable and confident in their language of choice.

Getting Started with Localization:

Enabling Localization for your institution is a straightforward process. Simply navigate to your Teachfloor settings, select the desired language from the available options, and voilà! Your Teachfloor platform will now be available in the selected language, opening up a world of possibilities for your learners. (Please note that the Localization feature is exclusively available for users on the Advanced plans.)

Localization is more than just a new feature – it's a testament to our commitment to transforming education on a global scale.
