Changes to What’s New/Tasks
The Task/What’s New functionality exist in several areas within the system. On the Home page it exists in the Courses nugget, Group nugget and Repository nugget. In a Section (Course, Group or Repository) it exists in the Guide. The following are the changes you will in this feature.

Home page

Courses nugget

The design for the Courses nugget includes an additional link to allow users to populate or refresh the tasks list for all courses in the list.
Load Tasks – This link displays in the top of the nugget, just below the title bar. It displays each time you login to ANGEL. When clicked the What’s New/Tasks are added to each course in the list. These are cached for the duration of the user’s login or until refreshed.







Refresh Tasks – This link displays in the top of the nugget, just below the title bar. It displays after you have click Load Tasks and is used to refresh the Task list. When clicked the What’s New/Tasks are refreshed for each course in the list. These are cached for the duration of the user’s login or until refreshed.







Course Guide
The functionality in the guide is basically the same. To view What’s new in the course, click the What’s new tab. To view outstanding Tasks in the course, click the Tasks tab. The change made to this feature is to always default to the Map tab. This improves your user experience since you won’t have to wait for the Tasks or What’s new to load when you don’t need them.
