Social Wall
At the Learning Lab, we understand the immense value of social learning and its impact on the educational experience. Recognising this, we are transforming our learning platform into a full-fledged Learning Experience Platform (LXP).
A key feature of this evolution is the introduction of a 'Social Wall' — a dynamic space where learners can actively engage with each other by publishing:
thoughts,
documents,
ideas, links,
videos,
and more.
This social wall is designed to foster a vibrant community of learners, encouraging:
collaboration,
knowledge sharing,
and peer-to-peer interaction.
By integrating social learning into the core of our Learning platform, we aim to create a more holistic, engaging, and interactive educational environment.
This initiative is a testament to our commitment to not just providing educational content, but also nurturing a learning community where ideas flourish and learners grow together.
Chat with Audio and video feedback
In 2024, the Learning Lab is set to revolutionise communication within our platform by enabling audio and video comments in our chats and forums.
Recognising the growing importance of multimedia communication, especially for mobile users, we are committed to enhancing the ease and richness of conversations between learners.
This update will allow users to express themselves more dynamically and personally, moving beyond the limitations of text-based communication.
Whether it's a quick video message to clarify a complex concept or an audio comment to provide feedback, these new features are designed to foster a more engaging and connected learning community.
By embracing these advanced communication tools, we aim to create a more inclusive and interactive learning environment, where every learner can communicate effectively and comfortably in their preferred medium.

In the coming period, we will undertake a comprehensive revamp of many pages and aspects of the user experience (UX).
This redesign will not only refresh the visual aesthetics of the platform but will also focus on enhancing usability and interaction.
Our goal is to create an even more intuitive, seamless, and visually appealing environment that aligns with the latest design trends and user expectations.
By reimagining our interface and user journey, we aim to provide a more engaging, efficient, and enjoyable experience for all users. Stay tuned for a platform that not only meets your needs but also delights your senses and simplifies your interactions.
New AWS regions (ex Switzerland, China, North America)
In 2024, we are excited to announce the expansion of our AWS (Amazon Web Services) infrastructure to new regions, including China, Switzerland, and various locations across North America.
This strategic expansion is aimed at better serving the diverse needs and communities of our global user base. By establishing servers in these key locations, we will significantly enhance our learning platform's performance, reliability, and speed for users in these areas.

The addition of these new AWS regions will ensure that our users have faster access, reduced latency, and a more robust data handling capability, aligning with our dedication to delivering top-tier, reliable, and localised service to every member of our community.
Gradebook / Quiz grading mechanisms
In 2024, we're introducing an advanced grading mechanism in our Gradebook and Quiz modules, offering a more nuanced approach to evaluating learner performance.
Moving beyond the binary correct or incorrect categorisation, our updated system will allow for the allocation of partial points for answers, recognising the varying degrees of accuracy and understanding demonstrated by learners.
This feature enables instructors to award points based on specific criteria, making the grading process more flexible and reflective of the learners' actual performance.
Additionally, at the end of a course, grades can be assigned based on the total points accumulated by each learner.
This cumulative grading approach not only provides a comprehensive assessment of the learner's overall performance throughout the eLearning course but also encourages consistent effort and engagement, offering a more holistic evaluation of their learning journey.
