Product Release Notes

STANDARDS SATCHEL

Quarter 4 2024 (Oct - Dec) In Progress

Rubrics (BETA)

✨ A NEW feature is being developed to support CASE® rubrics.

  • Rubrics will be visible within the frameworks they are connected too (similar to the way associations appear now).

  • System / Framework Admin and Editors will have access to this option from the editing menu.

    • Import options are also being developed in conjunction with the BETA release of this feature.

Canvas Export for Outcomes (Released - Nov 2024)

✨ All frameworks in Satchel can be exported to a format for easy import into Canvas

  • Choose the item type from the framework that you plan to use for '“outcomes” and the export will group all remaining unselected item types as groups into the format required for Canvas.

    • 🤩 Big thanks to Arizona DOE and their districts for their collaboration in building this feature; examples coming soon.

Subscribe Code - Add Comment Group Members (Released - Nov 2024)

✨ Now the creator of a Comment Group can give framework reviewers a join code

  • Signed in Satchel users sometimes want to collaborate in real time around a framework. Creating a Comment Group on the fly for an Admin / Editor of a Framework was tedious before but now, voila… members can be added instantly via a join code.

    • 🤩 Big thanks to Georgia DOE and their professional services team for this request.

Quarter 3 2024 (Jul - Sep)

Batch Import Tools Enhancements

✨ Ever wanted to batch add meta data, associations, or new items? Wish granted!

More Meta Data

✨ Meta data that has been added to an item within a framework is now visible from the tree and table views.

  • Framework viewers can access item meta data on the item card (tree view) and enable viewing of meta table from the filters (table view) for export.

  • Framework editors have the added option for editing an item’s meta data and viewing the field description from the tooltip.

  • 🤩 Kudos to Georgia and South Carolina for pioneering these innovative uses of CASE®.

Quarter 2 2024 (Apr - Jun)

CASE® 1.1 Upgrade - Extended Associations for Crosswalks (BETA)

✨ Crosswalk Association tools have been released to select partners

  • Carnegie Learning, the College Board, South Carolina Department of Education, Alabama Department of Education, and Georgia Department of Education are our first partners to try out the Crosswalk tools in their Satchel instances.

  • Look for User Guides and more information soon about when the Crosswalk tool will be available for all CASE® publishers using Satchel. Contact us if you want more information.

September 2023

Metadata Bonus
