OUR STORY
The Gap We Couldn't Ignore
Feature Updates
This page is where we keep you in the loop on what's new, what's changing, and what we're still testing in ImBlaze. Most of these updates started as a suggestion from a coordinator, advisor, student, or mentor. If you have a question about something listed here, or an idea for what we should build next, reach out to your ImBlaze contact. We're excited to here your ideas!
Memories
Notes are now called Memories. This name change also came with the ability for students to color code and pin memories. Educators can react to memories using 3 different emojis.

Mentor Portal
We did a complete refresh to the mentor portal. Mentors can now share how a day is going with an emoji and note, edit time entries for students, and sign up for text verification. Educators also get a new tab under Reflections to see mentor feedback across all their students in one place.

Feature Pilots
In an attempt to roll out new features with some user feedback to help inform the 'final' version, we are running pilots!
Quests — students set learning intentions and check in on progress every three weeks, with updates emailed automatically to their advisor and mentor.
Memory Prompts — starting in October, students at participating schools get a weekly prompt to reflect on their week right in Memories.
Educator Email Summaries — daily or weekly digests so advisors and principals can stay on top of their program without logging into ImBlaze.
