Description
Beginning in Fall 2022 Online Learning Services (OLS) is providing a training opportunity for Syracuse University faculty to explore Blackboard Ultra Course View (UCV). This will come in the form of an asynchronous, video-based orientation course to introduce the new course view. The course includes recommend tasks to complete in a sandbox ultra course and access to a weekly "office-hours" style meeting where enrollees can ask questions of OLS staff. Participants are enrolled in a course that uses ultra view with the role of "student" to get a sense of the learning experience, and complete exercises in an ultra view course where they have the role of "instructor" to test ultra view and experiment with its settings. Fill out a request for access to the orientation materials.
Application
...
An Ultra Sandbox is a private, blank course shell in the Ultra course view. You can use your sandbox to explore and get comfortable with the new interface, and to import, edit, and export materials to/from any of your other Blackboard courses. We highly recommend using your sandbox to copy modules, folders, and other content from your original view courses, update your content as necessary to work smoothly in Ultra view, and then copy updated items into your live courses after they have been tested and are ready to deploy in Ultra. A single sandbox is sufficient for most use cases and can serve as a centralized workspace for maintaining copies of all of your Blackboard course content. If necessary, additional sandboxes can be created upon request.
Orientation Course Description
The Ultra Course View Orientation is delivered as an asynchronous course built in Ultra course view. The orientation is designed to (1) introduce instructors to the new view from the student perspective and (2) to deliver a guided tour of how to get started with designing your own course in Ultra. Signing up for a Sandbox also gives you access to the orientation course.
