However, that gift isn&#8217;t quite ready. Still, we are pretty excited about this gift, so we want to make a preview available for those who are interested. This is a gift that we hope all will love and appreciate. Students. Teachers. Staff. Administrators. Everyone. We are currently targeting February for the delivery of the gift, but, again, this being a gift giving season, (combined with our excitement over distributing this gift), we have decided to open up a &#8220;sneak peak&#8221; at this wonderful gift.<\/p>\n<p>So, here goes. A wonderful gift for all. See, iLearn is an absolutely wonderful resource. However, some consider it a bit &#8220;clunky looking&#8221;. So we will be updating iLearn with a new, more modern user experience. (I told you it was wonderful). We want you to be able to play around and get acclimated with the new interface. Thus, we&#8217;ve set up a &#8220;sandbox&#8221; iLearn course for you to play with. Please note that students will NOT be able to sign in or use the course.<\/p>\n<p>Note that this site is still being developed. However, it will give you a great feel for what iLearn will look like.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Gone are tons of Blocks on the right hand side.<\/li>\n<li>Gone is the navigation block.<\/li>\n<li>Gone is a look and feel that is dated.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Welcome<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>To an updated look and feel<\/li>\n<li>To a navigation drawer<\/li>\n<li>To a gear based editing system<\/li>\n<li>To Tours to help guide users<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Teachers can open a preview of a great present starting immediately.
