  1. The ability to unpublish assignments after they have been submitted.

    I like creating my own exams to use during the course, but hosting them on netspace is a problem because I cannot unpublish them after a student has submitted work. This is a problem, because if I have a student that is absent, I cannot hide it from them, or prevent another student from taking a copy of their already submitted assignment.

  2. Can we make assessments accessible to screenreaders like Google Read & Write?

    We have really great material for supporting students with disabilities -- is there a technical barrier to making this possible? I have students with learning disabilities, dyslexia, etc. who are excellent computer engineers -- they understand the theory, they can perform on practical tasks and challenges ... they're just not proficient readers.

  3. Make the UI work again, please

    Netacad Homepage, Teach, Access the Courses you are teaching --> the new alphabetic order is unexpected and undeclared. Please get back to the "Most recent course first" order, or give us the possibility to choose!
    Moreover, the home page of the courses, and of the relevant chapters, does not load the JPG image anymore. Could you please adjust this too?

  4. Remove courses

    There should be a way to remove a course that was never public, or have no student.
    Other solution could be to archive old courses.

    Individuals can delete courses. While this is not encouraged we do understand there are times a course is accidently created and it needs to be deleted. This can be done by going to the course, click on settings, and then on the right side of the page is the option to delete.

    You can also conclude courses but we do not recommend this feature as it removes students from your class. The new I’m Teaching view allows you to sort by open and closed courses.

  5. Include some options into Assessment components marking.

    Kindly find attached the screen shot of another LMS system. In that system, once you open multiple tries for the student(s) then it ask you to select which marks to be posted in the grade book:

    Highest Score / Last Score / Average Score

    This option gives you flexibility and lets you save the clerical efforts. Imagine, while using Netacad, I've 200 students and if I give 2 to 3 attempts to all of them for two or three PT Skills Assessment activities then I need to manually input the highest grade in the current Netacad system, provided the students…

  6. Uploading student CSV

    It is almost exactly as painful to write all the student information out into the CSV as it is to just do it by hand. Firstly, why can I not download the information so that I could just copy paste it instead of having to reference it, secondly, if a unique key such as email address or institution ID is required then why would we need to fill out anything else, and thirdly I don't even have a institution ID field for anybody and if it is created then I have no idea what it is, nor do I want…

  7. CCNA1 Chapter 3 test question

    The following question causes confusion as it is not an accurate in the data that is encapsulated. The packet encapsulates the data segment with logical addressing. The logical address is not what is encapsulated, it encapsulates the segment.

    At which layer of the OSI model would a logical address be encapsulated?

    physical layer

    data link layer

    network layer

    transport layer

  9. Allow early access to material

    We used to be able to select/deselect the option "Users can only participate in the course between these dates" in the course settings page. I typically allow students to enroll early and used to be able to give them access to the material ahead of time. This is no longer possible.

    Please bring back this feature.

  10. Online Materials of Introduction of IoE

    I find the online materials of Introduction of IoE very informative with various formats. However, all materials except for the videos are printed in Chinese which slows down my speed of reading as I'm not used to reading computer jargons in Chinese.

    Luckily, there is an English version for the post-assessment.

    It is hoped that there is an English version for the course materials.

    Thank you for your attention.

    Regards,
    Desmond Mak

  15. Bulk Deacttivation

    I think it would be nice if the bulk deactivation would make it possible to deactivate all assessments for all students. I have tried this several times ever since Canvas was introduced as platform, at it has never worked for any of my groups. Tried it again a few minutes ago, with the same result.

  18. Poor Spanish translation

    Current Spanish curricula is poorly translated. There are some technical words that even if are originally in English, are used in the same way in Spanish. One specific example of this issue is related with the word broadcast, but Spanish version 6.0 includes this word translated as "difusión" and it doesn't reflect the right meaning in networking.
    Also there are some words that should be translated, for example "routing" should be translated as "enrutamiento" but hasn't be translated and it produces wrong translations like "routing estático" but it should be translated as "enrutamiento estático".
