Instruction/task no longer appearing in Drag and Drop

I have just noticed that in the Drag and Drop, that there is only the option to list the title - no longer instructions for the task.

So on the object, the title appears where you would assume the task instruction should be.

Is this just a glitch?

Thanks

Liza

Hi Liza,

No this is not a glitch. This is part of an effort to have uniform look for all content types. You can still have some sort of instructions by using the text object in the task.

Thanks, but this isn't uniform among all content types as this does not appear in Drag the Word - in Drag the Word the object title and the instruction/task remain separate.

Currently the object name appears where a task/instruction should be and it looks quite strange.

Hi Liza,

You are correct it is not yet uniform for all content types and you do have a point regarding Drag and Drop.

I've moved this post to the feature request forum so that the core team can look at it closely and maybe return the instruction field.

As nice as consistency is accross several tools, dropping a feature - which might have been used by different users - is normally not a good idea because it can disrupt the workflow of a teacher.

As for features, teachers who use technology in their classrooms are normally not very open to change because very often it means they have to spend their time on re-doing something instead of moving forward.

Therefore, please don't drop elements like this, rather make them optional. So that the user can decide how to best use an otherwise brilliant tool.
