Resource Boards

Schools use Resource boards to post general content that remains relatively static throughout the year. For example, the board probably includes library resources, the school handbook, hyperlinks to quickly access other sites, single sign on (SSO) URLs, emergency action plans, employee benefit information, and more. This content isn't designed for specific classes, teams, or activities.

You'll publish posts to specific resource boards. For example, you'll probably have different resource boards for teachers only, alums, parents of students in specific school levels, and students in specific school levels.

Rather than create additional boards, you'll use the filters on these existing boards to control who can see which Resource board content.

Four types of posts appear on the Resource board :

As a platform manager, when you create a post you'll also what type of post it is, determine which constituents can see it, and schedule when the post should be visible. Later, you can organize the posts to make the board easier for users to skim.
