Welcome To Commons 1.18!
This fall's release features group cloning, improved group library management, two-factor authentication, and new People directory filtering options.
The Commons, Social Justice, and the Fall Semester
As we return to remote classrooms and online work, the Commons team continues to stand in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter protest movement and shares the outrage and anguish of so many members of the CUNY community.
Cloning Sites On The Commons
With the release of Commons 1.17, admins can now clone their WordPress sites! This great time saver for instructors who use the Commons as a teaching site.
Structuring Commons Courses For Distance Learning
InCommon interviews professors Gwendolyn Shaw, Juliana de Castro Galvao, and Thomas Miller to discover how they use the Commons for distance learning.
Welcome to Commons 1.17!
We are excited to announce this release's two marquee features: a new, robust library for group resources and functionality for admins to "clone" their own sites.
“Twilight Talks” From CUNY TV
Produced by Wilson Reyes, the videos and podcasts on Twilight Talks cover social issues, art, mass culture, and politics.
Course Design & Development Tutorial
Developed by the CUNY School of Professional Studies, this tutorial's ten modules are a great resource for online course design and development.
CETL Online Course Design
Now on the Commons, this resource from the CCNY Center for Teaching and Learning helps instructors prepare courses for online teaching.
CUNY Distance Learning Archive
We invite members of the CUNY community to chronicle their experiences with distance learning during the COVID-19 crisis. Send contributions via our online form or email us at cunyarchive@gmail.com
Group Email Notifications Improvements
We made a small, but important change that makes it easier to see the subject of Commons group notifications in your inbox, especially on mobile devices.
