Why#

Tenant, sphere, speaker spot, head start: whoever understands the words understands the platform.

How it works#

Click pathHandbookGlossary

  1. 1In the handbook open “Glossary” (address /handbuch/glossar).
  2. 2Jump via the letter bar; every term names other words for it (“Also …”) and leads to the entry with “More on this” (Fig. 1).

  3. 3Under “What's new” (address /handbuch/neu) read the latest new features, each with a date and a reference to the entry.

Settings and switches#

No switch of its own in the feature catalogue — the feature belongs to its surroundings.

  • Part of the handbook; switched on and off with the switch “Handbook”.

Where “What's new” comes from#

The new features are created from the development history and assigned to an entry. So every news item leads to where the feature is described.

Glossary, handbook, knowledge#

  • Glossary — one word, one sentence.
  • Handbook — how a feature of this platform is operated.
  • Knowledge — background on learning platforms, courses and further education, independent of operation.

Tips#

  • The handbook's search also finds glossary terms; a term of the same name can appear before the entry.
