Release Information	New in Release 2021.043: Bug Fix: Resolved issue where add student screen would not save unless gender was manually entered. Classroom and Student quick reports now include New in Release 2021.042: New student selection screen which allows teachers to more easily see and select students. Select one or more students to get started. If only one student is selected, press the Start button to start an individual lesson. If multiple students are selected, press the Start Group button. Tapping the name of a selected student a second time will de-select that student. In group lesson mode, individual students will not earn mastery stars, however their participation is being recorded for future activity reporting. While the Group Preview module still exists in the lesson list, all of the RoboKind curriculum is open for use with group lessons, including lessons in full, teach, or practice mode. Tip: Teachers who wish to use a combination of both group and individual lessons might consider using the Full or Teach lesson modes for Group lessons, and Practice mode for the student individual evaluations. Students must be in the same classroom in order to participate in a group lesson.
