###Course Vocabulary Feature A Mediathread course vocabulary is a set of concepts and associated terms chosen by a course instructor. This is a good way to designate metadata for students to apply to items they analyze in Mediathread.

  • Instructors can create a course concept by selecting Manage > Vocabulary from the application toolbar.
  • Students & Instructors can apply concept terms to items and selections during analysis. The Edit Item, Create/Edit Selection forms now dynamically instantiate input fields for each course concept.
  • The Collection views were enhanced to allow filtering by single or multiple concept terms and tags, as well as by Owner and Date Created/Modified.

Note: We are using the excellent Select2 jQuery Plugin to support term and tag multiple selection and autocomplete.

###Course Migration

###Misc

  • Renamed instructor-level Tools menu to Manage.
  • Switch course design now consistent with the larger application.

###Infrastructure

  • Django 1.4.6 upgrade
  • All submodules deprecated. SherdJS is now packaged and exploded at bootstrap time.
  • Selenium tests now pass in headless mode.
