Third Quarter 2026 Report
Updates
Event kits
This summer we delivered event kits to organizers of over ten teacher training events. These kits were well received and enabled us to represent The Dock at places where the Dock has never been represented because of distance.
More kits are available. Each kit includes a retractable banner. Essentials of Teaching sampler booklets and stamped leather coaters. Please reach out to dock@thedockforlearning.org if you know of an event that could host a display for The Dock.
Internal Search
In September we recoded the search on thedockforlearning.org. This resulted in several advantages. Images for the posts are now included in the results. We also adjusted the weight the search algorithm to various post fields. In our testing, the search results are more relevant. What do you think?
General
Throughout the third quarter we’ve done several deep site crawls to locate issues with posts such as missing documents, descriptions, broken links, and general formatting issues. There is still work to do, but we’ve made significant progress with the improvements.
