Currently students need to do lots of extra work to find their most relevant (i.e. current) learning tasks. It would be nice if students could view their learning tasks on their learning task page by sorting by due dates irrespective of class. Especially near the end of the year, some subjects have dozens of learning tasks, which can be overwhelming to view. Students need to focus on the learning tasks that are due soon. While they can view them sorted by due date within each class, they still only see the first class on the page before needing to scroll down. If the default pagination shows only 20 per page, this means that other classes are buried on the 4th or 5th page (or more). The default sorting is also set to earliest at the top, meaning that students either have to manually switch the sorting, or scroll all the way to the bottom to see the most current learning tasks.

It's great that we can sort Learning Task enrolments by class, but currently, students still have to be individually checked or unchecked when managing specific groups. Could we add a class filter dropdown (as shown in the red box)? Filtering the list by a single class would allow us to use the existing Include All or Exclude All buttons to bulk-update just that specific class, rather than the entire subject cohort at once. This would save a massive amount of time for setting up subjects that run on a term or semester rotation.

It's a massive workload issue that when new students start at a school they don't get enrolled into learning tasks, but a lot of the other recommendations I've seen here are an all-in / all-out suggestion, which might not work for everyone. This proposal aims to use another already functioning part of learning tasks to help determine the logic of if a newly enrolled student should be automatically included in a task or not: The learning task due date. The system should automatically add a newly enrolled student to all Learning Tasks with a future due date, while skipping those with a past due date. For example, if a student enrolls in Term 3 after the due dates for Term 1 and 2 assessment tasks and Semester 1 Reports have passed, the system should skip enrolling them in those past tasks. This logic should trigger only when a new student enrolls in a subject, and only for that student, rather than running as a daily process that might undo previous setup. If a task does not have a set due date, students should not be added automatically, maintaining the current functionality.

For assessment learning tasks that are assigned to multiple classes in a year group, teachers should be able to set the date of a learning task for their own class. There should also be an option for this to be edited from the Learning Tasks class tab for the classroom teacher.

Are we able to get some sort of audit trail to movements of Learning Tasks, similar to the communications tab? This would help determine when task are pushed, removed, updated etc. This would help track down rogue missing Learning Tasks.

We have a very transient cohort with many new students. Currently, it is quite time consuming to add Learning Tasks for new students, especially when there are multiple learning tasks. It would be great to have an option that can be ticked to "Add any newly enrolled students to the Learning Task" to make this process automated. Having an option to toggle this on/off for each Learning Task would be best, so it doesn't need to occur if not approrpriate. This would save significant time rather than having to add the students or repush out the task.

Our school uses Master Learning Tasks to maintain consistent assessment structures, instructions, components and settings across classes. We need class teachers to be able to upload supporting attachments —such as rubrics, worksheets and assessment instructions—within the task distributed to their class. Teachers should only receive permission to manage attachments. They should not be able to alter the Master Learning Task’s components, assessment settings, dates, grading configuration or other administrative settings. This would allow schools to retain central control and consistency while enabling teachers to provide class-specific resources without requiring an administrator to upload every document.

The current hard coded max for subject coordinators is 5. To leverage teacher access to subject-wide tasks for semester reporting and course convenors often require more than 5 for popular subjects.

It would be great to be able to view parent engagement with learning tasks similar to semester reports. Would you be able to add a report of parent views?

Can we please have audit logs for Learning Tasks, Progress Reports & Semester Reports. Specifically focused on staff accountability regarding timelines for data entry. i.e. If there is a standard that data is entered in by x weeks after a task - then we need to be able to verify this has occurred. These questions come up several times every year (in both directions - why isn't this done - this was done by x date) where data is missing from reporting cycles putting pressure on other staff and other proofing processes. While we can lock Semester Reports, we cannot lock data entry into Learning Tasks.
