[ARCHIVED] Let's start a discussion now and continue it at InstCon

[zsgoreczky]

With InstructureCon just over a month away we’d like to start a conversation that we can continue there and beyond. Please contribute to one of the topics listed here, or all!  We’re looking forward to hearing your insights and perspective!

1. Community Conversation
   Right here, right now, let’s have a conversation on these topics.  Post your thoughts in the comments below.
   
   
   • What kind of content you would like to see more of in Commons?
     Some of the most  popular resources in Commons are templates. We’ve also recognized a growing need for social-emotional learning content.  Tell us more about these two things—or some other content type entirely.
     
     
   • What types of content would you be interested in searching / filtering for?
     We’d like to improve ‘Filtering’ in Commons to make finding content easier.
     
     
   • How do your content items relate either to each other or to other external content items?
     We frequently hear from instructors that they need a smarter way to link their content to each other within Canvas and externally as well. Representing how the different content items relate to each other in Canvas and to external resources seems to be a desired improvement.
     
     
2. Instructurecon Workshop
   July 10, 2019. The workshop will be dedicated to discussing the roadmap of Commons and Commons content related topics. Watch for the time and location in the conference schedule and bring a friend.
   
   

• Interview
  Spending time with you is an extremely important step in our journey towards creating great solutions for you. We would love to show you some of our ideas and hear your feedback on it. If you are available for an interview, please fill out this form: https://forms.gle/HwnmB6k6wbuvsy5T8 and we will get back to you.

We’re looking forward to all of these conversations. Thank you in advance for your contributions.

Hi  @zsgoreczky  and thanks for this opportunity!

1. Faculty PD content.
2. Include "Role" in the search criteria that are currently grade-based.
3. Our content is all over the place, but a broader choice in keywords, accessed through drop-downs would be very helpful when uploading content to Commons.

General desire - better organization tools at the user/admin levels to group like/related content

Again, thank you!

Kelley
