Portal Clusters

Clusters are groups of BYOW accounts which are part of the Portal, but which make up a smaller subset of the portal and are connected by some commonality, such as grade level, subject maters, etc. Each cluster has its own section on the portal Web site. By defining clusters, the portal manager can more precisely share resources, news, messages, etc., with a targeted subset of the portal community. Clusters also allow for useful tracking demographics.
  • Groups of BYOW accounts - subsets of the portal
  • Groups are based on some commonality
  • A Portal can define an unlimited number of clusters.
  • Clusters can receive cluster-targeted messages, news, and resources
  • Portal members can belong to multiple, overlapping clusters
  • Clusters have their own section on the portal Web site.
  • Clusters can be tracked as a profiled entity.
