On 14 September we will deploy the new version of learningCloud (5.18) whose most important new features are:
Setting pre-requisites (milestones) between sprints within a channel
Until this version, navigation between stages of a channel was sequential. A user had to complete all the required sprints of a stage before moving on to the next one. From this version onwards, the channel author can customise the navigation and set the pre-requisites for each sprint. For example, for the second sprint of stage 2, he could set as a pre-requisite:
- Complete all the sprints in stage 1
- Complete some sprints on stage 1
- Complete the previous sprints in stage 2
- No prerequisites
From this version onwards, sequential navigation will no longer be enabled by default but all channels created before this version will keep the previous behaviour, i.e. a user must complete all required sprints of a stage before moving on to the next one.
If you create a new channel, don’t forget to set the pre-requisites.
