Did You Know About Featured Media?
|
Did you know that MyVRSpot provides a way for school and district admins to "feature" pieces of media for other users in your district? If enabled for your district, admins can make sure no one in their district or school misses out on vital pieces of media. Users will know there is featured media by the number indicator on the bullhorn icon at the top of their screen. This is further evidence of how MyVRSpot is always striving to provide multiple avenues in which users can share their media with one another. Have your district technology department contact us today to have the Featured Media functionality enabled for your district!
