• Communication Tools. This workshop will cover the “how’s” and “why’s” of Blackboard communication tools, including announcements, e-mail, Blackboard Messages, discussion board, chat, and virtual classroom. Familiarity with the basics of Blackboard is recommended.
• Creating and Administering Exams with Respondus. In this workshop we’ll cover using Respondus and Respondus Lockdown Browser, powerful tools for creating and securely administering exams in Blackboard. Familiarity with the basics of Blackboard is recommended.

Unless otherwise specified, workshops will be held in the computer training room in Hunt Hall B128.

Sessions of workshops will also be offered in a live, online or hybrid (simulateneously face-to-face and online) format. These web-based workshops are especially suitable for those who can't join us in the training room on campus. They will also be recorded for later review. To participate in an online workshop, you'll just need a computer with an Internet connection (the faster the better) and speakers. A computer microphone would be helpful, but not required.
