What's new?
Though familiar, we have made some improvements to the
Calendar
feature. These are the changes that make it Universal:
  • View events for all of your classes and groups by default:

  • Personalize the color of each class/group's events (for a colorful view in both light mode and dark mode):

  • Filter event type, and see each event type tagged in all of your events (distinguish lectures from exams):

New Feature: Live Room Closed Captioning
You can now toggle on/off a setting to show live closed captioning for all live room classes and meetings.
As anyone in the live room is speaking, you will be able to see a live transcription of what is being said, and by who.
Toggle on/off live CC:
  1. Open your user menu (by clicking on your name, on the bottom left of the page) and click
    Settings
    . live-cc-step1
  2. Your
    Account settings
    modal should appear. Click the
    Preferences
    tab at the top (to the right of the
    My account
    tab). live-cc-step2
  3. Once you're in the
    Preferences tab
    , you'll be able to see the option for
    Live closed captions
    (the default is toggled off). If you'd like to turn them on, click on the toggle button. live-cc-step-3.png
  4. Save your changes at the bottom right of the modal, and you'll be able to see live closed captions. You can leave this setting on as your default for all live rooms, or you can change the setting by repeating the steps above. live-cc-step-4.png
