What is the LearnCloud Admin Panel?


This guide explains how to use the LearnCloud Admin Panel, which is accessed through the LearnCloud website. The LearnCloud Admin Panel is where the Deployment Admin has access to create a Deployment Library, update and edit Content and Collections for the Deployment Library, and visualize or export analytics that have been captured from the Rumie Tablets.

The Deployment Admin can add their own Content to the LearnCloud website, which then can be used in their Deployment Library. They can also use the Content and Collections already available on the LearnCloud website to add to their Deployment Library.

Offline Functionality  

Most Content on the LearnCloud will work offline on the Rumie Tablets, however it is important to verify which resources require internet access.

Content that will work Offline

  • PDFs
  • Videos
  • Some apps -- filter apps with the Offline Certified checkbox to sort which apps are confirmed for Offline usage

Content that will not work Offline

  • Links
  • Select apps

Links

If a piece of Content is highlighted in red in the Deployment Library and there is a symbol beside it, it means that it is a link and cannot be loaded onto Rumie Tablets. Instead, try to find a PDF or video that provides the same information as the link, or save certain pages of a website as PDFs and add them to the LearnCloud in order to include certain parts of a link.

Select apps

There is no easy way to automatically know what apps will require internet, are fully free, and work on the Rumie Tablets. Rumie tests apps and marks them as Offline Certified if they don’t require internet and Rumie Tablet Certified if they will work on the Rumie Tablets.

To see whether an app is Offline Certified and/or Tablet Certified, navigate to the Deployment Library, and click the Collection that has the app included in it. There will be two columns of Xs or ✓s next to each app.

  • The first column identifies whether a piece of Content is Offline Certified
  • The second column identifies whether a piece of Content is Tablet Certified

There will be an  X for apps that are not certified and a ✓ for apps that are certified.
