[[File:NFTeacherCompetencyView.png|thumb|center|600px|Competencies/Learning plan]]

Grade assignments more efficiently with everything on one screen and the ability (if enabled by admin) to annotate any uploaded file type.
[[File:NFAssignmentGrading2.png|thumb|center|600px|The new assignment grading screen]]

Section titles can now be changed directly from the course page:
[[File:NFedittopicname.png|thumb|center|600px|Edit titles inline]]
==Course management==
'''Easily retrieve deleted content'''
A new [[Recycle bin]] available in the course administration block once an item has been deleted allows you to quickly restore that resource or activity.(It will also restore deleted courses for those with relevant permissions.)
[[File:NFRecycleBin.png|thumb|center|600px|Restore deleted content]]
'''Activity tagging:''' A new setting when adding activities and resources lets you tag them  so they may be searched for by others in ''Site pages > Tags''.
[[File:NFDTags.png|thumb|center|600px|Tagging an activity]]
'''Search everywhere:''' If enabled by your administrator, the [[Global search]] feature lets you search courses you have access to, from a box next to the user menu or from the [[Global search block]]
[[File:NFGlobalSearch2.png|thumb|center|600px|Search the site]]
'''Search for and add multiple meta linked courses:'''
If the  [[Course meta link]] enrolment method is enabled for you, you can search for the course or courses you need and add them in one single step.
[[File:NFCoursemetalink.png|thumb|center|600px|Search for and add meta linked courses]]
==Activities==
===Forum improvements===
It's now possible to make important forum posts 'sticky' , by pinning them to the top of your list:
[[File:NFPinnedposts.png|thumb|center|600px|A pinned forum post]]
And the new 'Permalink' feature makes it easy to share direct links to interesting  individual posts:
[[File:NFPermalink.png|thumb|center|600px|Permalink]]
===Workshop===
*You can specify which files students may, or may not, upload for their peer assessment task and when giving feedback.
*Students may also delete their submissions.
[[File:NFWorkshopfiletypes.png|thumb|center|600px|Specify file types for the workshop.]]
