I simplified many of the practices by removing some of the Tasks that were redundant and were already being performed in the other practices. Taking the simplification even further, at the beginning of each practices I have written special instructions and within the margin next to each task, I've added which video to refer to and where they are located.īased on feedback received from trainers, I've even gone one step further. These videos can be found in the 'Videos' folder within the extracted practice files folder. This video can be played in the training room/classroom or viewed by the student.

For this to work a shared network folder for the two users to share the central file. One student performs all of User 1 steps and the other User 2 steps. Pairs of users (User1 and User2) can work together in a true collaborative environment.For training environments that now use the Single-User Subscription/ ID-based Subscription method:.Users can still open two sessions of Revit, change the username, and like previous releases they can work on the practices on their own. I kept the User1 and User2 reference in the written practice steps.For training environments that still have access to Network or Standalone licensing:.

Knowing how difficult it is to teach worksets, I wanted to keep this as simple as possible.

Because of this, launching two sessions of Revit and changing the username is no longer possible, so we had to get creative. With the new Autodesk single-user subscription/ID-based subscription method, users are required to sign-in to activate and use their software and it doesn't allow the user to sign out. This allowed the student to simulate the worksharing environment and work through the practices without needing a shared network location.

In previous releases of this learning guide, the Workset exercises were written so that each user would launch two sessions of Revit and then change the user name in each to User1 and User2, as required. These changes were required in order to align with Autodesk’s new single-user subscription/ID-based subscription method. ASCENT has recently made some required changes to the Revit 2020 Collaboration Tools learning guide with regards to how the practices for the Project Team Collaboration section are done.
