Updated Help Topic: Achievements
Idea Exchange ID: Not applicable
The default state for the Check for Achievements tab visibility for students setting is now Off. In institutions using Achievements, students who haven’t earned any Achievements will have the Achievements tab on their course pages. Institutions that had already adjusted the Check for Achievements tab visibility for students setting had their choices respected.
Check for Achievements tab visibility for students setting:
- Default state before 3900.114: On
- Default state after 3900.114: Off
- State for institutions that had turned the setting off before 3900.114: Off
- State for institutions that hadn’t changed the setting before 3900.114: Off
We made this change so students will know that they can earn Achievements in their courses before they’ve earned any. Students who are aware of Achievements will be more motivated learners.
This change was pushed to production on April 1, 2025.
Availability: Available for all Ultra courses.
