Product Updates For February 2017

Change is good.

When we commit to making changes happen in the service and support of students and educators, we believe that change is great.

Our team at Buncee has been hard at work on some awesome changes that will make your work in Buncee creation even more inspiring and dynamic. We will have a temporary closing of our site and app starting on Friday, February 3 at 7:00 p.m. to bring these product updates to you.

Our new changes will continue to make Buncee a part of your best learning experiences. Check out below what these updates will bring

New Look & Feel

After February 3rd, you’ll notice updates to the look & feel of Buncee. However, the creation canvas you know and love will remain the same.

This user interface change is all part of the site merge of buncee.com & edu.buncee.com. This merge will allow us to continue to improve the Buncee experience for you and your students based on your awesome feedback. If you have any questions on the updates to your account’s user interface, don’t hesitate to email info@buncee.com or chat with us live, Monday – Friday, 9-5 EST.

New Subscription Options

We have also added more subscription options, allowing you to best customize your Buncee creation experience.

After February 3rd, we will offer five plans: Buncee Free, Buncee Premium, Buncee Classroom Lite, Buncee Classroom Plus, and Buncee for Schools & Districts. You can explore the different plan options after February 3rd, or email info@buncee.com for more information.

Buncee Classroom Lite provides a Classroom Dashboard for up to 50 students, while Plus allows for up to 150 students. On Buncee Classroom and Buncee for Schools and Districts, users can now record videos, add Free Response and Multiple Choice Questions to Buncees, and create student accounts using a class code.

Stay tuned for more information on these new plan options!

New Classroom Dashboard & Buncee Creation Features

If you are currently an eduBuncee Plus user, after February 3rd you’ll have access to video recording within the creation canvas and quiz functionality! Going forward, you’ll also be able to add students to your classes using a Class Code.

iOS App Update

The Buncee- A Creative Presentation Tool iOS app users will have to update the Buncee app come February 4th to continue the seamless sync of Buncees between the app and the web. Check out this blog by Teacher-Librarian Shannon Miller to learn more about how you can use the iOS app.

For those who use the Buncee for Schools & Districts app, your app experience will not change. For new Buncee for Schools & Districts users, if you want to download the Buncee app, you will download Buncee- A Creative Presentation Tool to continue creating Buncees that sync with your account, wherever you go. Contact your account representative or email us at info@buncee.com for any questions regarding the app.

Next Steps

We will have a temporary closing of our site and app starting on Friday, February 3 at 7:00 p.m, for 8-10 hours. Don’t worry for we will be ready to provide any support or answer any questions through our Help Desk. You are also welcome to sign up for live training, and we can walk you personally through any of the exciting changes we have made.

In the meantime, continue to do the amazing work you do for all of your students with Buncee! We will continue to be here, supporting  your efforts to engage all students in the 4Cs of Creativity, Communication, Critical-Thinking and Collaboration!
