To support more flexible approaches, teachers can now switch to Self-paced plans by selecting the “Self-paced” option in the plan settings. When this type is chosen, students can progress through the content at their own pace.
Teachers can choose between two different workflows. By default, students can access all plans at once, meaning that a student can work on multiple plans simultaneously. However, teachers can also decide that students should focus on one plan at a time. Students then need to complete all elements added to a plan, before unlocking the next plan listed by their teacher.

We've added a small but useful enhancement to the global content search. You can now press Ctrl + K (or ⌘ + K on Mac) to instantly focus the search input field in the main menu. This is a widely recognized shortcut for site search across many platforms, and we’re pleased to bring it to ours for faster search access.
NOTE: On pages that use iframes, the shortcut may not work as expected; it might trigger the browser's address bar search or have no effect at all. As we continue our work to remove iframes across the platform, this shortcut will become more consistently supported.
