A method can present a new sequence of online courses within a specialization for a group of new learners while maintaining a previous sequence of online courses within the specialization for a group of previous learners. The method can include maintaining a base class, associating a first learner with the base class, receiving a request to update a previous sequence of courses, generating a child class, associating a second learner with the child class, responding to a request for a sequence associated with the first learner, and responding to a request for a sequence associated with the second learner.

Updating sequence of online courses for new learners while maintaining previous sequences of online courses for previous learners

In one general aspect, a method for generating a note for a video of an online course can include providing a video of an online course for display in a user interface on a display device included in a computing device, providing a transcript of the video of the online course synchronously with the providing of the video of the online course, the transcript being displayed in the user interface with the video of the online course, receiving an indication of a selection of a save-a-note element included in the user interface, and in response to receiving the indication of the save-a-note element, creating a note for the video of the online course. The note can include an indicator of a frame in the video when a particular phrase included in the transcript of the video is spoken, the particular phrase, and a screen shot of the frame.

Systems, device and techniques are disclosed for determining whether a mobile device is in vehicle mode. A notification may be received while the mobile device is in vehicle mode and the notification may be determined to be important or unimportant. If the notification is determined to be important, then the notification may be provided to the user via an output mode (e.g., display or speaker). If the notification is determined to be unimportant, then the notification may not be provided to the user via the display until the mobile device is no longer in vehicle mode.

Notification management

Systems, device and techniques are disclosed for modifying a cache value based on an upcoming reduction in connection. A determination be made that a user device is in a travel mode and intended travel data may be received accordingly. Data throughput information corresponding to the intended travel data may be received. A determination that there is an upcoming reduction in connection may be made based on the data throughput information. A cache value (e.g., amount of data received, provided, or cached) may be modified based on the upcoming reduction in connection.

Dynamic caching during travel

The present disclosure provides methods and systems for a rotary controller arrangement. A method may include receiving an indication that a rotary control element is moved to a first end position. A first action may be performed based on a selection of the first action at the first end position. An indication that the rotary control element is moved to a second end position may be received. A second action may be performed based on a selection of the second action at the second end position. The disclosed rotary controller arrangement includes assigning an action to the end point of rotation of a rotary control element. By assigning an action to an end point of rotation, a user may rotate the rotary control element to a particular end point to easily find and select the desired action.

Rotary controller arrangement

The present disclosure provides techniques for dynamic driver attention and event notification management based on the current contextual information about a vehicle, driver attention, and a distraction weight of a notification of an event. A method may include receiving a first contextual information about a motorized vehicle. An indication of the occurrence of a first event may be received. It may be determined that the first event has a first event notification weight that satisfies a first notification threshold based on the first contextual information. As a result, a first notification of the first event may be provided to a user of the motorized vehicle.

Attention and event management

Example embodiments relate to provision of an online catalog of files. In example embodiments, a computing device may display an online catalog that identifies files available for download. The computing device may also output a corresponding user interface element for each file and set each user interface element to an initial state. Upon selection of a first file for download, the computing device may modify the user interface element for that file to a downloading state to indicate a status of the download while continuing to display the online catalog. Subsequently, upon selection of a second file for download, the computing device may modify the user interface element for the second file to the downloading state, such that the computing device may concurrently download multiple files.

Display of an online catalog for concurrent downloading of files

A notification framework delivers notifications in a manner that is appropriate for a user's current experience. An API is implemented in the notification framework and provided to developers to develop applications utilizing such API to communicate with the framework. A display mode of an active application is determined by the framework. A notification generated by an alerting application is captured by the framework. The framework determines a mode of delivery based on the display mode and the notification, and delivers the notification accordingly.
