Notifications just got a major upgrade. All messaging and alerts are now consolidated into a single notification center, with expanded coverage across the platform — announcements, curriculum, professional learning, action plans, Global Connect, and more. A new monthly digest delivers a summary of any unread notifications straight to your inbox, and a dedicated settings panel lets you choose exactly what you're notified about, toggle features on or off, and customize your digest frequency. The default is set to monthly.
Currently, the top navigation includes two separate icons: an envelope (✉️) for Global Connect messaging and a bell (🔔) for notifications. Our goal is to consolidate the top navigation into a single, unified notification center for easier access and consistency.
Clicking "See All" on the notification message will open up the Notification Center.
Users will have access to a notification settings panel that allows them to personalize their communication preferences. This panel would enable users to choose their preferred delivery method, such as in-app alerts, email notifications (digest summaries), or both, based on what best fits their workflow.
Users can toggle notifications on or off by feature, giving them control over which updates they receive (e.g., action plan tasks, professional learning course reminders, global connect discussion replies, announcements, and more).
By default, users receive a monthly digest of unread notifications. This can be adjusted to weekly, daily, or turned off entirely. Users can also disable notifications for specific features individually by giving everyone the flexibility to stay informed on their own terms.
