Do you want your space to be that little bit brighter?
That’s what we’ll all be asking ourselves when the Great Migration to Brightspace takes place next semester, when we say goodbye to the dusty and forlorn hinterland of Blackboard and move over to those sunny uplands of our new Online Learning Management System.
Or something…
I’m sure the move to Brightspace will come into greater focus over the course of this semester (both here and more broadly in the department). But in the meantime, thankfully, those good people at ACERT are putting on some online lunchtime seminars next week to help with the transition from the old platform to the new. Here are the details:
On September 17th and 19th from 12:00-1:00pm, ACERT and the Center for Online Learning will be hosting Lunchtime Seminars to introduce Brightspace from the perspective of faculty members who have spent the summer designing Brightspace courses. These “Brightspace Ambassadors” from a variety of fields created courses for different class sizes (small and large), modalities (in person, online, hybrid), and with the tools (quizzes, discussions, etc.) that work best in their teaching.
You are invited to come hear their tips and tricks, and see what a fully designed Brightspace course can look like!
