Group Settings

By default, CBOX OpenLab supports four types of group, which members can use to collaborate and share information: courses, projects, clubs, and portfolios. However, site administrators can change these as needed, using the Group Settings feature.

This allows you to rename, add, or delete Group Types to meet the needs of your community (the site navigation will change automatically; a maximum of four group types is allowed).

Groups can also be categorized in different ways: for instance, the site administrator could change the name of the “Course” group type to “Seminar” or, alternatively, create a category to enable courses to be identified as seminars. This is done using the Group Categories feature.

CBOX has its roots in the CUNY Academic Commons, which in turn was made possible through funding from The City University of New York itself.

The Commons In A Box was made possible through the generous support of the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation.

The CUNY Graduate Center has directly contributed to the CUNY Academic Commons, housing the project since its inception, and has contributed to CBOX through its GC Digital Initiatives.
