New Instructional Technology Staff Start New Semester
If you’re seeing some new faces in DoIT, chances are they work in instructional technology. In March, DoIT announced Sherri Braxton-Lieber as our new Director of Instructional Technology. In July, she announced two new specialists, Holly Bielak and Mariann Hawken. They joined Tom Penniston, who worked with us part-time last year, and is now working full-time as a specialist, too. Finally, we have recently added Brad Boyle to support the International Media Center (IMC) and Scantron test scoring.
While everyone is well-versed in Blackboard, there’s a nice mix of expertise across all of the instructional technologies DoIT supports, including clickers, hybrid/blended course redesign, learning analytics and screencasting. Also, you’ll likely notice more workshops and brown bags as the new team is even holding a special drawing for people who frequent DoIT events. From scheduled workshops to individual or small group consults, if you’d like to learn more, please contact Sherri Braxton-Lieber at 410.455.2121 or sblieber@umbc.edu.

Bb Courses Prior to 2009 to be Deleted August 23-24
Courses older than Winter 2009 will be deleted from Blackboard during the weekend of August 23-24, 2014. This includes:- Winter 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008
- Spring 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008
- Summer 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008
- Fall 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008
UMBC has been using Blackboard since 2000, but
since 2009, DoIT has annually deleted Bb courses six (6) years or older. Our goal is to maintain no more than six (6) years of Bb courses on the active production server available via myUMBC or directly at
blackboard.umbc.edu. This best practice will keep the system healthy and ensure the Blackboard application can access course data within the allowed "backwards compatibility" timeframe supported by the vendor.
Bb course shells for FA2014 were created on July 12, 2014 on the Bb production server at http://blackboard.umbc.edu. Enrollments for FA2014 courses will continue to be updated daily. Bb shells are available for all courses (designated as lecture, lab, field or discussion) listed in the UMBC Schedule of Classes (SOC), provided that there is an instructor of record listed. The addition of new course sections and/or instructors will result in new Bb shells being automatically generated each morning. Student enrollment in Bb will continue to mirror the official registration in SA, and will update hourly.
If you are an instructor, and your name is not associated with the course you are teaching in the SOC, please see your departmental scheduling coordinator to get that issue resolved. Once you are listed in the SOC, your Bb course shell will be created automatically.
Note:
- By default, if an instructor is teaching multiple sections of the same course, all sections are combined into one Bb course shell. If you prefer separate shells, please submit an RT ticket to split sections.
- If you need a shell for a research or independent study course, please submit a new course request.
As a reminder, all Bb course shells are initially unavailable to students until the instructor makes it available. For help, visit www.umbc.edu/blackboard/help.

Known Issue: Course Lists Cannot Exceed 99 Courses
Too Much of a Good Thing
The maximum number of courses displayed within the “My Courses” module under myBlackboard or within the “Courses: Quick View” module under the Courses tab in Blackboard is 99. If you are enrolled in more than 99 courses, one or more of those courses will be missing from your course lists in Blackboard. Instructional Technology is working with instructors and faculty who are impacted by high legacy course enrollment by removing them from courses prior to 2011.

Introducing Respondus 4.0 and Respondus LockDown Browser
Two New Respondus Testing Options
Respondus 4.0
Respondus 4.0 is powerful tool for creating and managing a wide range of question types in a robust environment. The application can import questions with images, equations and tables. It will also allow instructors to generate a hard copy of a test or pull a test from Blackboard to create a hard copy for the use in the classroom. Respondus also has access to thousands of official publisher test banks. Using Respondus is as simple as downloading and installing the application to your computer through UMBC's secure software network and choose your files. Then select questions and push the resulting test to your Blackboard course.
Respondus LockDown Browser
DoIT has purchased Respondus LockDown Browser
as an alternative to scantron assessment. LockDown Browser can be used with Blackboard tests to “lockdown” a student’s browser during proctored exams. The browser is stripped of all plugins and add-ons for a stable test experience. If students attempts to take the test through Blackboard without the secure browser, they will be directed to download the application on their Windows or Mac systems, or use the LockDown Browser on an iPad.
The LockDown Browser was piloted this summer and practices developed for implementation. In addition to this FAQ article, the following are resources available from Respondus in preparation for Lockdown Browser roll out:
The Instructional Technology group will offer a workshop on Respondus 4.0 and the LockDown Browser on Tuesday, September 9, from 1:00 - 1:50 PM, and host weekly face-to-face and virtual drop-in hours for all instructional technology needs Wednesdays from 12:00 - 1:00 PM.
