Greetings Learning Commons Educators!

Congratulations on finishing the school year and happy summer! While you launch into well-deserved rest and relaxation, the Learning Commons partners are working to build and tag more valuable professional learning resources - which will be ready just in time for you to start preparing for another stellar school year.

Before you head to that hammock, check out some exciting news below. We look forward to sending you periodic updates and continuing to accelerate your professional learning through the Learning Commons.

The community is growing

We have more than 450 active users and over 2,000 total visitors, and we are growing quickly. Thank you for continuing to share the Learning Commons with your network to build and strengthen the community.

Additionally, we’re thrilled to welcome great content from our new partners. Stay tuned for more partner organizations later this summer.

Updated features & resources

Improved Search

We’ve improved (and will continue to improve) the search algorithm, ensuring you get to the right playlists and content as quickly and easily as possible.

Clever Library & Single Sign-On

The Learning Commons is excited to be one of the inaugural apps within the new Clever Library. Find the Learning Commons within your school’s Clever portal, or log into the Learning Commons with your Clever account.

Check out these playlists for back-to-school

Not sure how to create a playlist? We are preparing a short how-to video which we will send to you soon. It will be in your inbox when you get back from vacation!

As we continue in our beta, we look forward to your ongoing feedback and stories about how the Learning Commons supports your professional learning. Send questions, suggestions, or stories to [email protected]. 

Make sure to follow us on Twitter for ongoing updates. Thank you!
