Currently, when you comment a long text the entire session time out and you get unable to upload the edited file.
If one did add a Ajax timer control, as the sample in http://ajax.net-tutorials.com/controls/timer-control/, it would make the session exist as long as the user / teacher did edit the documents.
If the Ajax timer is applied only in the DirectEdit-section, then only the editing function would be affected. When the user goes to another section of It's Learning or close the browser then the timer will not update - and you would get the normal timeout as usual.

If the teacher changes the status on a students handin to "Not accepted - hand in again", there should be a reminder/message sent to the student automatically.
Working with working portifolios (as a teacher)

When I as a teacher is viewing the list of working portifolios, there is a field for "Last visited", showing when I as a teacher last visted the students portifolio. That is near to useless information (I usually know that myself), compared to a field for showing when the student last visited her portifolio, or even better, when she updated her portifolio, or even better, a coulum for both showing when the student last updated her portifolio and the number of new items she has uploaded under "The learners personal work".
As it is now, I have to visit each and every student's protifolio to check if there is anything new added.
I'm getting a bit tired of visiting 60 working portifolios every day, to catch the few new items my students have submitted.

Can there be an alert, like Skype, when you get a message?

Want all tables sortable by clicking all column headers, across the whole platform. Now, some tables are sortable, some are not, some only some headears, and some can only be sorted one "direction" (either descending or ascending).

As I was recommended by It's Learnings Key Account Manager to post this idea again, although it is already on the top ideas list, I do so:
Students do not have the ability to download more than one file at the time in Courses. There is no Export (IMS)-feature available for students in courses, as it is in Projects and probably also in courses for teachers.
If you would please consider giving students the ability to download all files in a folder in courses, or the whole course-folder, possibly by giving students the Export (IMS)-feature in courses as well as in projects, I would be very thankful!
Ability to re-take test - Incorrect questions only

There needs to be an option on the test 2.0 tool to re-take a test - just the incorrect questions. It's really de-motivating for pupils to have to re-take a test and do the questions that they got right a second/third time.

In the test section it would be very welcome to have questions where it is possible to drag and drop items on to a specific section of a picture. For example: I teach music and it would be very helpfull if students could put given note values on a staff where they have to ad the notes to a certain pitch. Or put ties between notes. It should be possible. At least it is a form that was used this years exam on music in The Netherlands, made by www.Cito.nl.

The icon 'Supervisor' in the administrator's menu, is tranlsated into 'Skolledare' in Swedish.
A Swedish user thinks this is confusing. A mentor is not a leader. He suggests the Swedish word: 'handledare'

I nice easy little login portal like the picture attached so it can be quickly accessed within school and out of the school. We do have links to the platform but then you end up with more than one location and many tabs not always easy to navigate.
