+Report of Not-Yet-Enrolled Students 
+====================================
+
+Course teams for invitation-only courses can now track enrollment status from
+the Instructor Dashboard. The **Data Download** page of the Instructor
+Dashboard now includes a downloadable report of learners who have been invited
+to enroll in a course, but who have not yet done so.  (TNL-1652)

+Learner Experience for Pre-Roll Videos
+========================================
+
+When a learner plays any course video in a course that includes a pre-roll
+video, the pre-roll video plays first. Once the pre-roll video has been
+presented to a learner, it is not shown to that learner again until seven days
+have passed.
+
+While the pre-roll video plays, the learner can select **Skip** to continue on
+to the video that they selected, or **Do not show again** to permanently opt
+out of seeing pre-roll videos in the course.
+
+For information about how course teams can add a pre-roll video and its
+transcripts to a course, see `Adding a Pre-Roll Video to Your edX Course`_ in
+*Building and Running an edX Course*.
