Impact: Instructors, Students
An accurate representation of course progress is key for both instructors and students. With this latest addition, any Ally alternative format accessed by a student will reflect in their presented course progress.
Students will:
- See the progress indicator updated to “started” as they download an alternative format using Ally.
- Be able to mark an item as complete after accessing any alternative format.
Instructors will see the progress made by each one of their students based on access to the original file or an alternative format.

For administrators: Progress Tracking is available behind a feature flag. Administrators need to enable it first.
