Blackboard: Open Topic

Please note that REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED for the open topic sessions.

Have you wanted to ask a question about how to accomplish something in Blackboard but couldn't find a workshop topic about it? Now you can come to one (or more) of these two-hour open house sessions to ask your question and to get help with your tasks.  Instructional designers and technology specialists will be available to assist you.

Where:  These workshops will be held at the Center for Learning and Teaching’s Faculty Development Lab, Gornto 411 and are available for participation via live two-way video at the Higher Education Centers.

Adobe Connect

 Adobe Connect is an online meeting tool where faculty and students can engage in synchronous collaboration using text, audio, and video. Participants in online meetings can also share applications and a whiteboard during the meeting. This is a two part series that must be taken in sequence.

(1) In the "Basics Workshop" participants will learn the "basics" of using the online meeting interface.

(2) In the "Beyond the Basics Workshop" participants will explore and practice using the many "beyond basics" features and tools as they relate to content presentation, student presentation, collaboration, document sharing, small group work, recordings, and more.

To accommodate recent demand, a new series has been added.  Seats are filling up fast!

Note:  The workshops will be held in the Center for Learning and Teaching’s Faculty Development Lab, Gornto 411.
