Blackboard Ultra Course View Orientation

Description

During Summer Fall 2022 Online Learning Services (OLS) will provide a training opportunity for selected faculty to explore Blackboard Ultra Course View (UCV). This will come in the form of an introduction and three one-week modules that combine synchronous and asynchronous content.

...

Module content will be created and presented in a Blackboard ultra course where participants are enrolled with the role of “student” so that they can get a sense of the learner experience.

Applications are due July 1September 14th, 2022. All registrants will have access to their own UCV course sandbox to explore and to the content in an introduction module which they should review before attending their first session.

Schedule

On June 29thSeptember 14th, OLS will release an introduction module for admitted participants for them to view asynchronous introductory materials.

Participants should expect to attend a series of 60 -90 minute meetings each week for four consecutive weeks. These meetings will be used as a kick-off for the content for the week to come and a wrap-up with a show-and-tell of ultra course content created throughout the previous week. The dates for these live meetings are:

• July 6thSeptember 14th: Module 1 Kick-off (60 minutes)July 13thoff
