Welcome to our first product update of 2020!

With classes starting back up last week and the MLK holiday taking place yesterday, you’re probably (like us) just beginning to get into the real groove of the semester. We’re happy to announce some important changes to Upswing to make the start of the semester a little bit better!

Easily view the workgroups assigned to each of your Async Tutors

For partners with Upswing’s asynchronous tutoring system, we’ve made it so that admins can quickly view and manage which tutors are assigned to various async workgroups.

Located on the Assignment Review tab beneath the “workgroups” dropdown

Delete unused queues for asynchronous tutoring

Another feature for partners with Upswing’s asynchronous tutoring system, we’ve made it so that any unused queues can be deleted by an Upswing HERO, removing any unnecessary clutter in your admin dashboard. This will make the management and oversight of the assignment review process a bit easier for admins!

If you have any unused queues, they can now be quickly removed by your Upswing HERO

Bug resolved for admins toggling between various user profiles

We’ve fixed a bug where admins using the Profile Search feature would have to refresh their page when navigating directly from one user’s profile to another user’s profile. Now, the data loads automatically, preventing any need for a page refresh.

Instant loading makes profile search a much better experience!

Upswing Coaches can now receive non-integer pay rates

As part of our revamped Upswing Coach compensation and performance evaluation process, we’ve added the ability for coaches to have hourly pay-rates that can include a cent amount in addition to the hourly dollar amount. This will allow us to better incentivize and reward coaches when they are high performers who deliver excellent student experiences.

That’s a wrap for this edition of Upswing Product Updates. We look forward to the many exciting new features that are coming your way this year!

Have any questions about what we just released? Want to give us some feedback? Feel free to contact your HERO, or send us an email! speak@upswing.io
