• New: Assignments - New Text Submission type and workflow.  Instructors can now create Text Submission assignment types in Brightspace Learning Environment. The new Text Submission type allows learners to create text documents for submission directly in Assignments using a rich text editor, eliminating the need to attach a file.
• New: Lessons - Improved navigation in the table of contents. A number of enhancements have been made to improve navigation in the Table of Contents.
• New: Quizzes – Dynamic preview available in question pools. Question pools now include a dynamic preview on the right pane. The preview displays questions randomly selected from the current question pool.
• New: Quizzes – Removal of image and text information items. As images and text can be included in any type of question using the features of the HTML editor, there is no longer a need for image and text information items. Image and text information items in existing quizzes or question libraries convert into sections, and are still displayed to learners attempting the quiz.
• Updated: Turnitin - Improvements to version 2 of the Turnitin Integration. A number of improvements have been made to version 2 of the TurnItIn intergation (for the handful of teachers that are using that service).
