The new digital-first education world requires a great user experience (UX). This is crucial to effectively creating more engaging, accessible, and impactful learning. 

This is especially true in EdTech, where both students and teachers need seamless platforms to achieve their learning goals. 

At Legends of Learning, we recognize the power of a strong user experience and so have overhauled our platform to meet the evolving needs of our users. At the same time we’ve also added a few fun surprises to make your classroom more fun! Here’s what we did it and why it matters:

Legends of Learning’s Upgraded Experience: Why it Matters

As an educator, you know that when tools are intuitive and easy to use, you can focus more on teaching and less on technology. 

On the other hand, when a platform is cluttered, slow, or difficult to navigate, even the best learning content becomes a challenge to deliver. 

A good UX design isn’t just about making things look nice; it’s about making platforms functional, accessible, and efficient. 

This is critical not only for engaging students but also for helping teachers maximize their time and resources.

At Legends of Learning, we took your feedback seriously and worked to eliminate frustrations, making the platform easier for educators to use. No matter whether you’re assigning activities, monitoring student progress, or exploring new teaching resources!

Why We Updated the Platform

We listened to your feedback. After six years of building and expanding our platform, we have introduced many new features based on educator requests. 

Over the years, our platform grew in complexity as we added new features according to your requests and needs. This growth made the platform’s initial experience more complicated, especially for first-time users.

Therefore, we realized that it was time to simplify and reorganize our features to deliver a more intuitive experience. Now, educators at every level have it easier to assign activities, track progress, and access resources quickly!

What’s New: A Simpler, Smarter Experience

This Legends of Learning upgraded experience contains a series of key improvements that make the platform ideal for teachers and school leaders. Read on to discover all of them.

• Simplified Assignment Creation: We’ve streamlined the process for creating assignments, making it easier and faster to get lessons set up for your students. 
• Streamlined Navigation: We’ve placed the most commonly used features right at your fingertips, making it easier than ever to access the tools you rely on daily.
• Teacher-Friendly Design: We refreshed the overall look of the platform, making the interface cleaner and key features easier to find and use. 
• Consolidated Activity Types: To easily find and understand the wide range of activities available, we’ve consolidated all activity types into one location with clear descriptions. 

And Now For The Fun: New Teacher Focused Awakening Features

The Legends of Learning upgraded experience isn’t just about simplifying navigation—it’s about enhancing how you deliver engaging experiences, like Awakening.

With our updated platform, teachers can now add Awakening as a timed activity within assignments, giving students a focused learning session tailored to specific topics or objectives. 

Additionally, the new Awakening customization options allow you to personalize your own teacher avatar and virtual classroom. This unique update gives you the ability to design a classroom that reflects your teaching style and flair.

How It Benefits Users

For teachers, the new UX means spending less time navigating the platform and more on instruction and student support. 

You can quickly set up assignments, manage class activities, and track student progress, all with fewer clicks and less confusion.

For school leaders and principals, these updates help ensure teachers are using the platform efficiently, allowing for smoother implementation across classrooms and grade levels. 

The streamlined design also helps new teachers get up to speed more quickly, improving the overall adoption of digital tools in your school.

And the new Awakening features bring everything together with a more engaging and fun experience for all!

Putting Educators First

At Legends of Learning, we believe that great technology should support great teaching. 

Consequently, we’ve built our user experience redesign around the needs of educators like you—those who inspire, motivate, and lead students to success.
