In the first article, we gave an overview of the EC function, and in the second article, we introduced the EC function plans. In the third article, we will introduce the advantages of the EC function as a compilation. Review of the EC function With ▼learningBOX's EC material sales function, you can build a sales site that allows you to create content, create your own domain, and customize the design. Plus, it's simple to use and easy to register! You can add and create content according to your needs and applications, such as PDF materials, video materials, materials for certification exams, study aids, and more. You can sell original study courses from a wide variety of content features. For those who wish to use the EC function, there is a special EC license plan called "EC Special License," which differs from the regular license. You will be charged on a pay-as-you-go basis for the settlement amount of course sales. Comparison of EC special license fee plans There are two main fee plans for operating with ▼learningBOX. The Starter and Standard Plans are pay-as-you-go plans based on the number of registered accounts. (If you wish to use EC functions, this license is not available.) If you wish to use the EC feature, this is the EC Special License! The EC Special License Plan is a payment billing plan that charges a fee for each payment. The EC (Educational Material Sales) Special License has a different fee structure from the Starter and Standard Plans, which are based on the number of accounts. The number of accounts is unlimited and does not expire. While the Starter and Standard Plans are based on the number of users, the EC function (EC Special License) is based on the amount of payment for course sales. The initial cost is low because payment is based on the number of times the payment is made. Click here to see the features of the EC special license.

E-Learning Learning with Memorization Cards This is Kitaoka, our marketing manager 🍎. It's almost August! Lately, when I walk outside, the sound of cicadas seems to be louder and more lively than usual. It's almost time for a full-blown hot summer! In my hometown of Aomori, the average temperature in August is 23.3 degrees Celsius (based on data from the Japan Meteorological Agency). It is very different from here in Kansai. Now, I'd like to put aside my ramblings and talk about e-learning learning methods using memorization cards. I hope you will continue to read this article with me. Now, let's get down to business! Have you ever actually tried or made memorization cards? Most of you may have used them as study aids when preparing for a school test, studying for an exam, taking a certification exam, or acquiring a qualification. These tools have been the standard method of memorization up to now, haven't they? This time, we would like to introduce CardGenerator, a memorization tool created by an IT company that is second to none of the above three! We look forward to your continued support in the future. Table of Contents What is CardGenerator? 2. Introducing e-learning learning by combining CardGenerator and QuizGenerator 3. LearningBOX can be used to distribute as a learning course 4. Summary What is CardGenerator? CardGenerator is a digital version of memorization cards that can be easily created by anyone with an Internet environment and a PC. Even if you are not good at operating a computer, CardGenerator has an easy-to-understand manual, so anyone can easily create and publish memorization cards on the web.

Thank you for your continued support of learningBOX. We are pleased to report the results of the survey we conducted with your cooperation in April. We would like to thank the many people who provided valuable feedback on the survey. We will use your opinions and impressions to inform our future development policy for learningBOX, as well as features that should be developed, in order to ensure customer satisfaction. We will use your answers only as materials for our future activities to improve the quality of our services. Click here for table of contents 1. survey contents 2. report of the survey results 3. summary Content of the Questionnaire We have asked five questions in this survey. Thank you very much for taking the time to complete our survey. Here are the survey items Question 1. Do you use the paid version? Question 2. Please tell us how you use learningBOX. Q3. How satisfied are you with our company? Q4. Please tell us about any other products that you have compared with ours or that you have used before. Q5. What do you want to achieve with learningBOX, and what additional functions would you like to see added? Report on the results of the survey Q1. Are you using the paid version? Q2. What do you use learningBOX for (multiple choice)? Q3. How satisfied are you with our company? Thank you very much for your high evaluation. We are not satisfied with the results of this survey, but will take your concerns and feedback seriously and strive to improve our functions in the future. Q4: Please tell us about any other products that you compared with ours or that you have used before. We did not compare our product with any other company's product. We focused on price when we introduced the system. We have monthly training sessions, and we have to manage and report the results of about 100 people within the company, so "ease of creating teaching materials" and "ease of grade management and notification" were major points in choosing your e-learning system. The learningBOX system was visually familiar and easy to operate. It was also easy to implement in terms of cost. I think that the system is still as user-friendly for both administrators and students as it was at first. Q5. Is there anything you would like to achieve with learningBOX or any additional functions you would like to see added? About ▼Quiz I would like to make a quiz in which the correct answers are given in any order. I would like to make questions in which the order of the choices are randomized and questions in which they are not. I would like to have an auto-save function. There were many times when I jumped to another page without saving my changes. The sensitivity of the sorting questions seems to be a bit poor when using a smartphone or iPhone. It would be useful if there was an option to set a passing score, so that the last question answered would count as a pass or completion. About the memorization cards It would be nice if audio was available for memorization cards. It would be better if the cards could be read out loud. About the email notifications There are many times when I want to send a reminder e-mail to someone who has not finished studying the material. In such cases, it would be very helpful to be able to send a reminder e-mail to those who have not yet studied the material and those who are still studying. Currently, we have to send the e-mails individually. Questionnaire function Regarding the layout, some users said that the questions are difficult to read on the left side of the screen. We would appreciate it if you could edit the layout or reconsider it. Others It would be great if Powerpoint animations could be used instead of iSpring. We would like to conduct online classes for the purpose of preventing new coronavirus infection. (Online class) We would like to have a reservation function for uploading and a notification function when uploading is completed. (I would like to select multiple contents and upload them in order.) We would like to add a memo to the name of teaching materials for internal use. (A function to inform other administrators of comments such as "This is for XXX" that can only be seen by administrators.) I want a batch setting function for the management function. (When giving grade management privileges to multiple people, I would like to set them all up at once.) (When we give multiple people the authority to manage grades, we would like to set them all up at once. I would like to create, edit, and manage video training programs in chapter format using learningBOX. We would like to have a chat function. Students can easily ask questions, give explanations to each other in the same group, and share their problems. For customers who want to conduct online classes (online classes) Please refer to the article "Using a live streaming tool to conduct online classes on learningBOX" for details on how to set up a live video streaming service using learningBOX and the video sharing site Vimeo. For customers who wish to upload large files If you have been unable to upload videos due to their large size, please check out our article on how to compress videos to make them smaller. The article provides detailed instructions on how to compress videos to reduce the size of the file. For customers who wish to use chat The learningBOX message box makes it easy to exchange conversations between members of a group, just like a chat room. For more information on how to use and set up the message box, please refer to the article on the message box function that can be used for online learning. SUMMARY We have asked five questions in this survey. Thank you very much for taking the time to complete our survey. We appreciate the valuable feedback we received from so many people. We will always strive to satisfy our customers with the opinions and impressions you have given us, including our future development policy for learningBOX and features that should be developed.

E-Learning Learning for Use in Schools [Part 1 Long time no see! It's Kitaoka in charge of marketing🍎, and we are now entering the last week of June. The weather has been unstable nationwide, and many of you may be getting sick due to the extreme temperature differences in some areas. Hot summer is already upon us! Through learningBOX, we will continue to do our best to provide you, our readers, with e-learning learning that is useful for school education! If you are interested in e-learning, but are not sure how to use it in real situations, please refer to this article and let's think together about how to use e-learning and how to utilize it! Click here to see the table of contents 　　　　 ------[Part 1] This time! ------ 1. unpimping from examples 2. setting goals 3. create study materials 4. divide them by subject 　　　　 ------ [Part 2] ------ 5. learningBOX account registration 6. group settings 7. setting up grade management 8. summary Pimping from an Example Let's take "Taro Tatsuno," a middle school social studies teacher, as a hypothetical setting and consider e-learning learning that can be expected and utilized in the educational setting. In this paper, we will discuss teachers' problems and how they teach their students as exercises for e-Learning learning! Basic Information Taro Tatsuno: In charge of third grade social studies Taro Tatsuno's PC level Computer-related information is at the level of gathering information on the Internet. No programming knowledge, PC operation level to create documents using Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Taro Tatsuno's concerns 1) There is a lot of variation in scores from class to class. (2) It is practically difficult to provide learning guidance tailored to each individual student. (3) The majority of work time is consumed by creating materials for classes and tests (4) Parents have high expectations and pressure (5) Students' interest in social studies is low and their motivation for learning is low We believe that many teachers in the educational field have these problems. Many teachers are required to achieve results (grades) within a set time frame, and the workload of "duties and responsibilities" for each teacher is high, and I believe that many teachers suffer physically and mentally while performing their daily duties. In addition to teaching students to study, teachers have other non-work duties, school events, and relationships with parents, and they are often in a position, low-positioned and across-the-board. I think those who have club activities and class/grade responsibilities are even busier. Based on Taro Tatsuno's concerns, let's start e-learning learning together, using our learningBOX in action, how to create a learning environment that reduces the burden on teachers and increases students' study awareness through e-learning learning! Goal Setting Mission ①Improve students' knowledge and motivation to learn ②Propose and create study methods that match each student's level ③Reduce time spent on creating materials ④Gain the trust of schools and parents (5) To get students interested in social studies through e-learning study Let's immediately create a design with learningBOX that will satisfy the above conditions (1) to (5)! Let's create learning materials If you try to create learning materials based on the big word (concept) of social studies, the entry point is so wide that you will not know where to start. Let's create learning materials by narrowing the scope and genre, and then gradually broaden the scope of study and improve the quality of the content. Recommended Question Creation Procedure First, divide the material into sub-items, medium-sized items, and large items. When the number of questions in the sub-items increases, organize the information into groups or categories. When the number of middle items increases, divide the information into large items and complete the composition. Image Diagram Let's actually create teaching materials with learningBOX! Major Subjects: Social Studies Middle Subjects: (1) History, (2) Geography, (3) Civics...etc. Subtopics: (1)-1Japanese History, (2)-1Japanese Geography, (3)-1Structure of Japanese Society...etc. Here are the quizzes we made 10 questions about Japanese history → History questions 10 questions about Japanese geography → Geography questions 10 problems about Japanese society → problems of society Comprehensive questions → Comprehensive questions Test questions close to the real test → Test Click here to see the difference between Normal Mode and Master Mode. Features of learningBOX Easy to create questions with ①excel and text. We recommend the "Question Creation Form" for first-time users. 2) Multifunctional question format (3) Images and videos can be inserted. (4) URL links can be embedded in explanations (5) Optional functions allow you to create a test that is closer to the real test. The quiz creation function offers a wide variety of quiz types and functions. ▼Quiz creation features include a wide variety of quiz types and functions, as well as the ability to embed video clips. Separate by subject Organize the educational materials created above by folder. Learning control features to aid course design Prerequisites can be set by using the constraint bar in the Content feature. There are two types of constraints: answer or view all questions and materials above the constraint, or pass all questions and materials above the constraint. *This constraint bar allows the learner to follow the procedure efficiently. Limit the number of lessons to meet your objectives By setting a limit on the number of times a course can be taken, you can make students take the course up to a specific number of times. This will help students to feel tension and concentration, which are difficult to stimulate in a regular class! You can assign materials to each group Depending on the level of your students, you can assign the materials you want to distribute to each group! Summary of the first part This discussion is going to be a long one, so I will break it up here. In the first part, we used learningBOX as an example to show how to propose learning methods, create teaching materials, and separate questions that could be used in e-learning based on Taro Tatsuno's problems. What did you think of this e-learning study using learningBOX that we introduced this time? I think it was a fresh new study method different from the textbooks, notebooks, and printed learning materials currently used in schools and educational settings. I am sure that study methods will continue to evolve with the times. We may have entered a turning point in terms of the "quality of education, flexibility of teaching methods, and education that meets the needs of the times" that we seek and require. In the second part, I would like to talk in detail about how to manage grades and registration based on the learning environment created by learningBOX, etc. In the second part, I will also provide more in-depth information about the operation and cost aspects of e-learning. or you are about to give up because of the difficulty of the operation. Our learningBOX will turn your anxiety into anticipation! We look forward to seeing you again in the second part! Thank you very much for reading this article.

Hello! I'm Kadota from the Systems Development Department! Our office moved on September 2, 2019! With that, I started to commute by bicycle. For all of you who don't get enough exercise, I highly recommend biking to work! Well, this time I wrote an article on the grand theme of "Study". Please take a look! Before we get to the blog, let me make an announcement about an upcoming exhibition this coming September 25 (Wed)-27 (Fri)! We will be exhibiting at Educational IT Solutions (Kansai EDIX) at Intex Osaka, September 25 (Wed)-27 (Fri), 2019! ▼For more information, click here. We are now steadily making preparations! We are planning to hold mini-seminars and other events on the day of the event. We will also have an opportunity to explain actual demo operations directly from our staff, so please come to the event! We are also accepting applications for invitation tickets, so if you are interested, please check out the 3rd 【KANSAI】Education IT Solution EXPO in INTEX Osaka. Our staff is looking forward to seeing you there! Now back to the blog! Click here for the Table of Contents 1. think again. What is studying? 2. what is studying for? 3. Studying is a luxury! 4. there are countless ways to study 5. Conclusion Think again. What is study? Study is important." No one can disagree with this, can they? In today's age of 100 years of life and rapid changes, it is necessary to continue studying even as an adult. So, what is "study" in the first place? I have thought about it again. According to "Kojien" (6th edition) To devote oneself diligently to something. (2) To study or learn a subject or skill. (3) To learn by gaining various experiences. (3) To sell products at a reasonable price. (3) To sell products at a reasonable price. (iii) To sell goods at a reasonable price. The following is the list. Three kinds of meanings have been mentioned, but I would like to talk about (1) and (2) this time. First, let's talk about (1) "To work hard with all one's might". Simply put, this means "to work hard. Secondly, 1) "to work hard" means simply "to work hard". (2) To learn about studies and techniques. To learn by gaining various experiences. To do mathematics. This is the image of "going to school," "learning a lesson," or "a new employee learning a job. Both meanings have the same sense as we usually use. What is it that you study for? Why do you have to study?" Everyone has probably wondered this at least once, haven't they? For children and students, the most likely reasons are "because I will have trouble when I grow up," "for higher education," or "because I won't be able to get a job if I don't study. For adults, there are "because I need it for work," "to get a qualification," and so on. Other reasons include "to fulfill my dreams" and "to enjoy my hobbies more. The above reasons, although worded differently, have one thing in common. It is "to grow up better than I am now and lead a better and more enjoyable life. When you are a child, you will often be reasoned with by adults rather than by your own will. On the other hand, those who are able to continue their studies as adults probably have many spontaneous reasons. (It's hard to do that when people tell you to, isn't it?) There are also many seniors who remain curious and challenge various things even as they get older. When you think about it this way, the more spontaneous the study, the more positive and wonderful the reasons are. Studying is a luxury! Now to the title, don't you think it is a great blessing to be in a situation or environment where you can study in the first place? As an extreme example, if we were at war or under attack by a natural disaster, we would not be able to study, would we? Philosophy developed in ancient Greece because the city of Athens had enormous power in the region and was at peace, meaning that they had too much time on their hands. (You've heard of Plato, Socrates, Aristotle, etc., right?) If the family was poor and had no food to eat, the situation might be like, "Don't go to school, get to work! (You have heard of the Socratesses, the Aristoteles, etc., haven't you? In Japan during the period of rapid economic growth immediately after World War II, workers who had graduated from junior high school were called "golden eggs," and this was the norm. Later, with Japan's economic growth, the high school & college enrollment rate has been steadily increasing. Today, one might think that "going to cram school" or "going to high school" is a matter of course, but of course there is a cost involved. Usually, students go to school with money that their parents worked hard for, but it is not a cheap price. According to the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology's 2008 survey of children's learning expenses According to the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology's survey of children's learning expenses, the annual cost of attending a public high school (full-time) is approximately 451,000 yen. Based on the above, we can say that being able to study is a very blessed and luxurious thing. Nowadays, there are countless ways to study. Studying is such a luxury, but today, there are many ways to study, not only by going to school. However, it is difficult for busy professionals to attend classes after work. So, is there any better means? One way to make good use of this is to use "e-learning. With the spread of personal computers, smartphones, and tablets, e-learning has become much easier to use than before. With e-learning, you can study efficiently in your spare time, such as when you are waiting for a train, or when you are traveling by train. And of course, our learning management system "learningBOX" is one of the "e-learning" services. It can be used by individuals, of course, but it can also be used for corporate training programs and tutoring schools to distribute materials to a large number of people, and it can also be used for student management and grade management. What's more, "learningBOX" can be tried free of charge. We hope that you will create an account to try it out and make use of it to improve your studies and skills. Click here to register Summary Have you thought about the idea of studying? Being able to study is a blessing. I hope you will make use of our e-learning system "learningBOX" to help you grow as much as possible. And, "I want my employees and staff to grow and have a better, more enjoyable life! If you are in charge of training and human resources at a company that wants to make your employees and staff grow and have a better, more enjoyable life! To those in charge of education! LearningBOX" is available at a price range that is easy to implement, even for companies that have felt that e-learning systems are too expensive and difficult to implement! We also offer a free plan that allows you to use the system for free and indefinitely. Please take this opportunity to register. Thank you very much for your cooperation.

This is Kidaoka🍎, our marketing manager. Due to the coronavirus, many schools have introduced home study and online learning. With more time spent at home for home study, many children and teachers are probably feeling stressed because they cannot communicate directly with their friends and teachers, unlike in their normal school life. In this article, we will introduce the "Message Box" function of learningBOX. This function allows you to send and receive messages to and from registered members and groups. Our e-learning system, learningBOX, allows you to easily communicate with your teachers and friends in addition to doing online learning. Depending on how you register and set up groups, it is possible to communicate among students or just teachers. Please refer to this article and make use of the message box. Table of Contents 1. what is a message box? 2. send a message to a member 3. examples of how to use the message function 4. summary What is Message Box? Message Box is a function that allows users to exchange messages within an organization. Using this function, it is possible to communicate with the learningBOX Development Division of Tatsuno Information System. Let's send a message to the members! Since this is an exercise, let's send a message to the administrator, "Dr. Tatsuno" ⇒ all members, and take a peek at the actual exchange using the "Student A and Student B" accounts. Please watch this video. *If you have difficulty viewing the video, please click the lower right corner of the video and watch it in full screen. Log in to learningBOX with Student A's account. Check the message box and you will find the contents sent by Tatsuno-sensei in the message box, so send the message in the same way as the procedure in the previous video. Log in to learningBOX with Student B's account. When you log in with Student B's account, you can see what Tatsuno-sensei has sent and Student A's messages. The oldest messages are at the top of the message box, and new messages are accumulated at the bottom. Review of the message box You can choose the recipients from "Group, Members, and learningBOX Development Division". If you uncheck the "Allow replies" checkbox, you will only be able to view and not reply to messages. When a member replies to a message in the message box, a notification will be sent to the administrator's e-mail address. For more information on how to use the message box, please refer to this page. Please refer to this page. ⇒How to use the message box Here are some examples of message box usage Using the message box in learningBOX, you can send announcements to the whole group or to a given "group or member". Since multiple people can write to a single conversation, you can communicate with your students without spending a lot of time and effort. 1. distribute the questions and have the students take the course Math quizzes can be solved here. 2. Provide feedback via the message box. In this way, please feel free to use the message box to check your understanding of online learning, to resolve your daily study worries and concerns, or just to chat or take a break. I believe that you have been forced to study at home and have lost a lot of conversation and communication with your friends and teachers. Studying is important, but sharing small messages with classmates may help children and teachers feel better. Conclusion In this article, we have introduced, albeit briefly, the functions and usage of the learningBOX message box. Using this function, you can easily communicate with other members or groups who have registered an account. You can communicate with your teachers and friends while you are learning online. It is also possible for students to communicate with each other and teachers alone. Please refer to this article and make use of the message box.

The Spread of Adaptive Learning [e-Learning Around the World]. Hello, my name is Motoki, and I am in charge of marketing. Thanks to your support, this is the third installment of the popular (in my opinion) "e-Learning Around the World" series. Following on from our discussion of flipped learning and MOOCs, this time I would like to talk about a keyword that is gaining more and more presence in e-learning every day: "adaptive learning. Adaptive learning. which is becoming more and more prevalent in e-learning every day. Click here for the Table of Contents What is adaptive learning? 2. Typical Services 3. Key words to keep in mind 4. Summary What is adaptive learning? What does adaptive learning mean? If you look up the word "adaptive" in a dictionary, you will find that it means "adaptive, adapting. Adaptive learning is a learning method that uses artificial intelligence (AI) to optimize learning materials according to the learner's academic ability and proficiency level. Simply put, it is a learning method that matches the learner's level. With the emergence and evolution of AI (Artificial Intelligence) technology, it is becoming popular in the field of education as a learning method that analyzes learning history data and provides learning content optimized for each individual student. To use a school example, until now, it has been common practice to assign homework and problems of the same level and content to all students in a class. Adaptive learning allows students to focus on areas of weakness or stumbling blocks and learn from the basics, or to excel in areas in which they excel. In online shopping, there is a recommendation function that displays a list of recommended products based on product search history and purchase history, such as "Here are the products we recommend for you" or "Here are the products you buy together". This is similar to the way the system works, isn't it? Anyway, when I think back to my childhood, I remember that if I was not good at a subject or a unit, I would go on and on without understanding it, and I would think to myself, "I wish this unit would hurry up and pass by! I remember thinking, "I wish this unit would hurry up and pass! It would be wonderful if the learning progressed according to the level of each individual. Typical Services Let's take a look at some typical services. First is KNEWTON. The representative of adaptive learning is Knewton (Newton), an American company that appeared in 2008. Knewton is a service that specializes in adaptive learning. As an example, the completion rate of one math course prepared at Arizona State University increased by 171 TP2T, the dropout rate decreased by 561 TP2T, and 451 TP2T students completed the course four weeks earlier than scheduled. One of the features of the program is a system that uses web-based tests to recommend the next best learning content and assignments to learners, allowing both administrators, learners, and parents to understand where they are stumbling and where they can move on. Other adaptive learning offerings include DreamBox Learning DreamBox Learning is an adaptive online learning site that focuses on math and arithmetic. ●IXL IXL has been introduced in schools in the United States. There is also information that the site is actually being used as homework in schools. The Japanese site also has actual problems to solve. Key words to keep in mind We have looked at representative services for adaptive learning, and it seems that as AI evolves and spreads in the future, adaptive learning will be one of the methods that are likely to revolutionize the learning style. Now, I would like to introduce some terms related to adaptive learning that you should be aware of. I will provide more detailed information on each of these terms in a later article. Here is a quick introduction. Education Big Data As the digitization and ICT of education progresses, much of the learning data that used to be paper-based can now be obtained in the form of data. Although the use of this data requires a sophisticated approach called data science, it is data that will change the nature of education as a whole, not only for children but also for adults. Learning Analytics The data analysis approach to learning using the educational big data mentioned above is also very important. Learning analytics analysis and measurement are likely to attract even more attention in the future in order to utilize the learning data that has become available as a result of the digitalization of education, such as various types of e-learning and MOOCs. Recommendation functions as educational support This is a recommendation function to support learners by utilizing educational big data and learning analytics. This function is familiar in e-commerce (EC), but in the case of education, it is likely to be even more useful. For example, we can expect various things such as recommended learning contents to overcome individual weak points or learning contents recommendation utilizing learner's attribute data (age, gender, hobbies and preferences). Conclusion Just as big data is driving change in various industrial fields, the digitalization of education → big data → the evolution and spread of adaptive learning, which means that the education field will be transformed in the same way. In this issue, I have used the example of adaptive learning in the U.S. and introduced some related terms. In the next issue, I would like to take an even sharper look at e-learning around the world. In the next issue, I would like to take an even sharper look at e-learning around the world. Thank you for reading to the end! Reference: Edtech will change the future Author: Masahiro Sato

How to give appropriate roles to members using learningBOX permission settings Hello! This is my second time to write a blog. My name is ⛄ Shinokura. This time, I wrote an article highlighting "Authorization Settings" for member management. Authorization settings allow you to set up role assignments for each account, such as "creating teaching materials, managing grades, assigning teaching materials," and so on. Thank you very much for your understanding. Table of Contents What are authorization settings in the first place? 2. how to set permissions 3. how to assign permission settings to members 4. detailed settings 5. summary What are permission settings in the first place? Our e-learning system (learningBOX) allows you to give authority to group members. Each member can be given a role, and a wide range of settings can be made, including "Administrator Authorization," "Teaching Material Management Authorization," "Grade Management Authorization," "Teaching Material Allocation Authorization," "Group Management Authorization," and more. For more information on authority settings, please refer to "Administrative Authority". How to set up privileges First, create an owner account with all permissions. After registering the account, click "Member Management" on the menu bar and assign permissions. Let's assign permission settings to members. Group Management Authority Authority to invite and edit members, create and edit groups. Authority to manage teaching materials Members who are authorized to manage teaching materials can manage [Create/Edit Contents] and [Create/Edit Folders] in the learningBOX. Grade Management Authority Members who have been granted grade management privileges can view the grades of other users. Grades of all users invited by the administrator are displayed by group, by individual, and by question. Authority to Assign Grades Members who have been granted the right to assign grades to specific users or groups can assign folders to specific users or groups. Administrator Privileges There are four types of administrative privileges, each of which can be set. The four types of administrative privileges are "Authorization", "Notification Management", "Email Template Editing", and "Settings Page Access". Detailed Configuration Methods Each user can edit a specific folder or group, or view group members' grades. Clicking on Group Management Permissions in Member Management opens a modal and allows you to set permissions in a pull-down format. Group Management Permissions allow you to invite and edit members only to the groups you have set. If you have permission to one group only, you cannot move members to other groups. With the Educational Material Management permission, you can edit and create educational materials only in the configured folders. With grade management privileges, you will only be able to view the grades of the course materials in the folder you have set for the group you have set. Conclusion In this article, we have introduced the authorization settings. By partially granting the necessary permissions to each member account, you can create a system that prevents users from moving to pages they are not in charge of. You can hide pages that you do not want to be viewed by unmanaged users and prevent accidental operations. The administrative authorization function can be combined in dozens or hundreds of ways, including partial authorization. You can configure them to suit your needs. Thank you for reading to the end.
