  • Publication number: 20240152694
    Abstract: A method and system for providing an electronic form are described. The method and system include identifying a visible portion of the electronic form. The electronic form can include a control component at a component location of the electronic form that is operable to receive an input from a user. The method and system can then determine an accessibility state of the control component based on the component location and at least one of a display property of the display and the visible portion. The accessibility state can be a convenient state when the component location is suitable for the display but is in an inconvenient state when the component location is not suitable for the display. When it is determined that the accessibility state is the inconvenient state, the method and system involves displaying a transient control component, or a version of the control component, on the display.

  • Publication number: 20150006425
    Abstract: An electronic learning system for generating at least one visualization in relation to a plurality of learners. The system includes at least one data storage device storing learner data and class data, the learner data having a plurality of performance aspects associated with each learner and class data being associated with the plurality of learners, and at least one processor in data communication with the at least one data storage device. The at least one processor adapted to receive the learner data and the class data, generate at least one visualization indicative of performance of each learner in relation to the plurality of learners based upon the learner data and class data, the at least one visualization including multiple graphical features, each of the graphical features being indicative of one of the performance aspects of the learner relative to class data, and display the at least one visualization.
