You deserve a community experience that feels effortless - where finding answers, sharing your voice, and connecting with peers is simpler, faster, and more rewarding. And thatās exactly whatās coming your way.
Weāre thrilled to announce our partnership with Higher Logic, Vanilla to build the next generation of the Instructure Community - launching later this year!
Whatās Not Changing
Letās start here:
- The Community will still be your go-to destination for self-support, collaboration, and connection.
- Youāll still find resources, ask questions, and share expertise with millions of fellow educators and admins.
- And weāre still deeply committed to learning, and growing this Community, together.
Whatās New and Whatās Possible
Weāre not just refreshing the Community - reimagining what it can do for you:
- Answers, Always - Post a question and get helpful responses faster than everāfrom peers, experts, or smart AI suggestions (that you can turn off if you prefer).
- Smarter, Simpler Search - Search like you talk. Our new AI-powered search understands real language, gives you a clear answer, and links you to trusted sources.
- One Search to Rule Them All - Need a training course? A partner tool? A support doc? Search once, find it all - Community, Training, EdTech Collective Marketplace, Canvas Network, and beyond, discoverable in a single search.
- A Personalized Home Base - Your homepage evolves with you. Whether youāre brand new or a power user, the content you see reflects your role, goals, and interests.
- Content That Fits - Say goodbye to noisy feeds. Youāll get recommendations and filters that actually make sense - because theyāre built around you.
- Real Recognition, Real Connection - Earn badges, rank up, and unlock meaningful connections. Youāll even be able to showcase your Canvas Credentials on your profile.
- Community That Reaches Out - Been away for a bit? Weāll check in. Achieved something big? Weāll celebrate it. Youāll hear from us when it matters most.
- Easier to Manage, Easier to Grow - Behind the scenes, weāre gaining the flexibility to highlight top resources, launch new spaces, and respond to your needs faster than ever.
When Is This Happening
Weāre planning to launch your new Community experience this December. Between now and then, weāll be migrating content, inviting select members to preview features, and sharing sneak peeks of whatās coming.
This is a huge step toward the Community youāve asked for - and we canāt wait to build it with you.
Letās create something incredible, together.
