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.
Instructional Resources For Challenging Times
InCommon provides a list of tools and platforms available at CUNY to transition from face-to-face to distance learning and strategies to implement them.
Continuity In The Times Of Coronavirus
Considerations for Instructional Continuity provides a guide for CUNY instructors during this crisis. Courses On The Commons provides help for those wishing to use the Commons to make a quick transition from face-to-face to online instruction.
Courses On The Commons
Designed for both students and teachers, Courses On The Commons is a new section in Commons Help devoted to teaching and learning.
Commons Ten Year Retrospective
The Commons Timeline documents the site's evolution over the past ten years and shows how new functionality is driven by member needs.
Block Editing Libraries Now Available
Are you using WordPress's Block Editor? The Commons just added two new block libraries, each with layouts and snippets designed to create content in sections or "blocks" that can be efficiently and aesthetically combined.
The Commons Turns 10!
As the Commons celebrates its 10th Anniversary, Matt Gold and Luke Waltzer reflect on its evolution and what's in store for the next ten years in an interview on The Thought Project podcast.
Welcome to Commons 1.16 !
This fall's release features improvements to our courses directory, group calendar and file folder enhancements, and a new splash page to request access to user-only sites.

InCommons interviews Ryan Seslow, the founder of Net-Art - the cross-college, cross-campus open course that synthesizes the disciplines of communication technology, graphic design, and digital storytelling.
Archives & Special Collections at BCC
Now on the Commons, the BCC Archives and Special Collections site serves as a portal to the library's extensive collection of photographs, documents, oral histories, ephemera, and digital surrogates.
