Latest Features coming to Surpass – Winter 2019

Title card for January Surpass pre-release videoThe next release of Surpass includes some fantastic new features to help your organisation with assessment design and delivery.

Tim Burnett and Holly Nicol recently demonstrated some of the key enhancements in a Surpass Community webinar, which was broadcast live from the BTL offices on 22nd January. If you weren’t able to join, you can catch up on the full recording here.

In this short article we summarise some of the key features going into the next release. As always, more comprehensive details can be found on the Surpass Knowledge Base when the release goes live.

If you’re an existing Surpass Community member you can contact your Account Manager for details of how to access this information. If you are not currently a Surpass user, and you are interested in finding out more about these, or any other features, please contact our Business Development team using the form on our contact page: http://www.btl.com/contact-btl


 

New Task Type

In addition to the existing ‘General’ and ‘Review’ task types, a new ‘Authoring’ task type has been introduced.
Users can be assigned a list of blank or partially populated items to complete, giving control over the number of items the user creates, with a template for them to work to.



 

Track Changes in Review Tasks

In an enhancement to the ‘Review’ task type, it is now possible to track the changes reviewers make to items.
Task Managers can then accept or reject changes to automatically action them.



 

Enhancements to Item Search and Lists

In order to allow greater flexibility when creating an item list, customisable columns allow you to control which pieces of data are shown in the item search results table.
Filters also allow you to filter on columns of data, making it easier when dealing with lots of data and items.



 

Inline Comments

In order to make it easier for item authors and reviewers to communicate, inline comments can now be applied to an item.
This places a comment on a specific part of the item, rather than being logged against the item as a whole, for a more granular level of feedback.
