Loading UX

‍

Instruqt’s new loading UX transforms the learning experience by letting users dive into content without waiting for a lab to load. With real-time assignment previews and smooth lab transitions, users stay engaged while tracks load in the background, creating a frictionless journey from start to finish. This upgrade addresses one of our top customer requests, streamlining hands-on learning, improving user satisfaction, and delivering immediate value for both learners and content creators.

Key benefits:

• Boost user engagement: Users start exploring right away, reducing potential disengagement or dropoff.
• Minimizes redundant actions: Eliminates extra clicks to start challenges, simplifying navigation.
• Better user flow: Integrates notes and lab previews, improving content relevancy.
• Faster time to value: Reduces idle time, allowing users to focus more on core learning.
• Immediate issue resolution: Offers a retry option if loading issues occur, preventing interruptions.

Persistent feedback tab

The persistent feedback tab feature improves the quality, immediacy, and relevance of feedback, creating both a better user experience and optimized lab design.

Key benefits:

• Improved feedback quality: By enabling feedback during the lab, users are more likely to provide honest, immediate insights as they progress.
• Reduced bias: Collecting feedback at any point of the track, reducing the “survivor bias” of end-of-lab-only feedback, and enabling feedback from a broader range of user experiences.
• Increased user engagement: In-the-moment feedback fosters a sense of contribution and allows users to express their opinions as they arise.
