LMS Notes

Students taking online courses have nowhere to capture questions or insights tied to a specific lesson. LMS Notes adds real-time note-taking inside LearnDash, LifterLMS, Sensei, and Tutor LMS so students write directly within the course interface. Notes appear in the student profile for easy review, instructors can read them per course, and students can export notes as PDF or DOC files.
