With
Study Manager a teacher or teachers group will be
able to create and manage self study material – texts,
sound, images, videos, links – for their students.
The students will work with the exercises and tasks in SharePoint.
Web-based learning environment

Virtual classroom
Each study group can have its own site in Study Manager.
Here each student can reach the table of contents where
he/she sees what exercises have been finished and which
one is the next. This is also the place for everything that
should be shared within the study group.
Course Management
Study Manager will arrange the study material in
an hierarchic way that is easy to overview. The hierarchy
is visible in the table of contents, which is updated automatically
each time study material is added to, edited or removed
from Study Manager.
Study Manager can have two types of exercises:
Listen to a text, with or without a possibility
to follow the sound in the written text. This type of
exercise is most suited for language courses.
Several kinds of exercises with self correcting
tasks. The exercise can be a text, an image, a video,
graphics or a table, and different kinds of tasks are
connected to it. Such exercises can be used for any
subject.
Students can also work with files that are commented on
by the teacher.
Study Manager will support all editions of SharePoint
2010 and above, including Office 365 SharePoint.
