What's New

v0.6.6-beta

Easel is now built around the Course. Each course brings its communication, materials, assessments, timetable, and attendance into one workspace.

Live in this release:

• Course Stream for announcements and assignments in one feed.
• Files and Folders inside each course.
• Assignments with student turn-in and faculty grading and feedback.
• Attendance, marked by faculty per session, with a summary and history for students.
• Timetable, viewable from Courses.
• Library and My Files, including the pattern of uploading a file once and referencing it across several courses.
• Community, the platform-wide discussion area.
• Ask, the AI assistant, with sources shown alongside answers.
• Faculty Records, with add, edit, import, and export.
