HyperSkill May Update: Classroom Management, Richer Analytics, and Career Pathway

By /

Building on April’s analytics dashboard and Spark launch, May is all about empowering educators. We’re shipping full classroom and lesson management for teachers, deeper analytics views with session-level replay, and an expanded Career Pathway experience in Spark. Here’s everything new.

The New Analytics Dashboard

 

The updated dashboard, with aggregate session data, completion rates, and average skill mastery across all learners

The HyperSkill analytics dashboard got two meaningful upgrades this month.

Improved Visuals and Aggregate Data: The main dashboard now displays a richer picture of simulation performance — sessions started vs. completed over time, average completion time, completion rate, and average skill mastery broken out by competency. Everything you need to assess how a simulation is landing across your learner population, at a glance.

Dashboard Views: Authors, teachers, and learners each see a different HyperSkill — and now you can switch between them. A new “View as” menu in the top-right corner lets you toggle between Author, Teacher, and Learner perspectives without logging in and out of separate accounts. Useful for QA, onboarding, and support.

Individual Session Detail: Clicking into a user session now opens a full summary — start time, duration, device, total actions, and overall mastery — alongside a raw log stream of every event. Combined with the replay feature introduced in April, you can now go from aggregate data to an individual learner’s exact session in just a few clicks.

Classroom and Lesson Management

This is the biggest release of the month. HyperSkill now gives teachers a full classroom management experience, built directly into the web portal.

Create Classes and Invite Students: Teachers can now create classes, tag them by subject, grade level, standards, and graduation year, and invite students by email. Students receive access and see their enrolled classes immediately in their own learner view.

 

The new Classes page — create a class, view lesson counts, student enrollment, and creation dates all in one place.

Build Lessons: Inside each class, teachers can build structured lessons that combine multiple content types: pre-assessments, readings, vocabulary, simulations, and post-assessments — all sequenced and organized in a single lesson view. Each content block is tagged by type and can be marked timed or ungraded.

The lesson builder — combine simulations, readings, quizzes, and vocabulary into a single structured assignment.
 
Student View: Students see exactly what their teacher has assigned. The My Classes page shows enrolled courses with active lessons, expiration dates, and content to complete — all without any navigation overhead.
The student view — clean, focused on what’s assigned, and tied directly to the teacher’s lesson.
 
Coming in June: Quizzes and vocabulary modules will be fully authoring-enabled. Teachers will be able to create and embed their own quiz and vocab content directly inside lessons.
 

Spark: Career Pathway

 

The Career Pathway experience, matching learners to careers based on their simulation performance and interests.
 

Career Pathway feature gives learners a personalized view of where their skills could take them. Based on activity and interests, the pathway surfaces matched career options with salary data, job opening counts, growth trends, and the top skills associated with each role. Learners can explore the “About,” “Pathway,” and “Take Home Pay” tabs for each career — giving the experience real depth beyond a simple career list.

This month also adds Feedback Panel improvements and a refined Scoring and Ontology system to the Spark authoring flow, giving authors more control over how simulation performance maps to competency scores.
 

VR and Platform Improvements

May includes a solid round of bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements across VR, desktop, and web.

VR

  • Restrict Player Movement now correctly disables both teleport and locomotion, giving authors reliable control over learner navigation in constrained environments.
  • Clear Cache deletes all downloaded simulations, so learners can fully reset their local library when troubleshooting or freeing up device storage.
  • Quiz interactions can now be selected anywhere on the answer row — not just on the checkbox — making it easier to interact in VR.

Quiz interactions now register a tap or click anywhere on the answer row, not just on the checkbox itself.
 
  • Drone control accuracy is improved.
  • Use Trigger now highlights correctly when triggered.

VR and Desktop

  • Persistent highlight issues are fixed across both platforms.
  • Display Message now supports an optional header, and authors can choose placement at bottom-center or bottom-right — giving more flexibility for how messages appear in simulation.
  • VO (Virtual Object) descriptions are improved — object labels now render more cleanly in-scene.

Agents Service: The AI agents backbone has been upgraded from JSON mode to structured output, improving reliability and reducing errors in SimGenie-powered interactions.

SimGenie Authoring
  • Authors can now use SimGenie to support and update State Actions and Settings directly in the authoring flow.
  • Display Message actions in SimGenie now support header toggling and placement configuration, matching the new VR/Desktop options described above.
