#EXTERNAL WORKSPACE MANAGER UPDATE#
Upon re-entering play mode an option allows feedback etc to be released and assets update to show their most recently updated state.

In pause mode the latest version of each asset saved prior to the pause is shown – this allows Managers to temporarily freeze what is seen on the Workspace, perhaps whilst feedback is added. In play mode the assets viewed on the Workspace are always shown in their most recently updated state. The asset only needs to be submitted once to establish the live link, which remains until the asset is removed or the Workspace is archived.Īctive Workspaces (or assignments if there are multiple activities on the workspace) also have three different states: play, pause and stop. As the asset owner continues to edit their work in their Pebble+ account, the changes are immediately visible on the Workspace. When an asset is submitted to a Workspace or assignment, a live link is created between the Workspace and the asset in the asset owner's Asset Store. These are typically kept for future auditing purposes. An archived Workspace is a digital snapshot of the completed Workspace – this contains a copy of the work submitted, grades & feedback and approvals. Active Workspaces are visible to its membership and are typically being accessed on a regular basis. A Workspace in Set-up mode is not visible to Members, just the Managers. Workspaces can be in one of three main modes: set-up, active, and archived. Workspaces have three main types of membership: Membership TypeĪre the users who submit work or visit the workspace for information, resources or conversations Īre the ‘teachers’ who support the learning and assessment taking place Ĭan be added to validate the assessment processes. The same users undertaking different tasks over time can be easily accommodated within a single Workspace by utilising the Assignments function to create multiple assignments with different deadlines for each assignment. Different users coming together at different times would normally be assigned to different Workspaces. The relatively fixed membership of a Workspace is perhaps its most defining characteristic. Typically Workspaces are created for groups of users undertaking common activities within a defined time frame.
