Based on the feedback from the community, Microsoft yesterday aounced some new features that are coming to the Microsoft Educator Community. They have now simplified sign-in process, improved navigation toolbar, and a revised Microsoft Iovative Educator (MIE) Certified Badge, in addition to other useful features. Find the full list of new features below.
- The sign-in process now has significantly fewer required fields to ensure quick, easy registration. In addition, fields will automatically populate with the user’s First/Given Name, Last/Family Name and Country/Region as provided by the authentication process.
- For retuing users, the Sign In pop-up primarily displays the authentication method used to access the site previously, making signing back in a breeze.
- We’ve introduced a new “MIE Certified” Badge to replace the existing “MIE” badge, which users can now ea upon reaching 1,000 points in the Educator Community.
- You can now easily see how many points you have eaed, and where you eaed those point.
- We’ve introduced more a cleaner, more intuitive profile navigation dropdown so features are more organized and easier to find.
