National Distance Learning Week 2018 Lunchtime Series Learn about ADP, Collaborate, Panopto, accessibility, Ultra

One in four students take some of their courses online, and two-thirds do so at a public institution in the same state where they live (Allen, Seaman, Pouline, & Straut, 2016; Allen & Seaman, 2017). In early November, UMBC celebrates the 11th anniversary of National Distance Learning Week (NDLW) with a series of lunchtime conversations. Topics include:

Hybrid or Online? Learn about the Alternate Delivery Program

Attend this information session to learn more about the Alternate Delivery Program. Ask specific questions related to the ADP Course Designer Track Call to Participate for Spring/Summer 2019. Previous ADP alumni will be on hand to share their experiences!

Support Student Engagement with Collaborate Ultra

Imagine a room that was perfectly outfitted for collaboration -- except the room only exists online. Collaborate Ultra is an integrated web conferencing tool available to faculty through their Blackboard course shells. Attend this virtual session to learn best practices, workflows, and use cases.

Panopto Lunch ‘n’ Learn

UMBC has recently announced the licensing of Panopto, our new and improved screencasting platform. Learn about how Panopto could change the way you think about lecturing.

Explore Accessibility in the Technology Test Kitchen

Bring your own device (laptop, tablet, smartphone) to one of our Technology Test Kitchen areas to learn and explore both faculty and student approaches to accessibility. Each Kitchen features “chefs” from Accessibility & Disability Services or IT to discuss “recipes” (strategies, tools, resources, etc.) for addressing a particular issue.

Monthly Blackboard Ultra Experience Orientation

UMBC's current flavor of Blackboard has not changed significantly in many years, but that's about to change with the Ultra Experience! Attendees will receive information about training opportunities and how to access an Ultra Experience sandbox. Discuss the differences between course conversion and course redesign, and learn about other features exclusive to the Ultra Experience.

Please RSVP: A light lunch will be provided for in-person sessions.

In 2018, this conference will be held in St. Louis, Missouri, but the Instructional Technology team will host two virtual sessions on Wednesday, October 31, in ENGR 102:

10 AM - 11:30 AM - Register online
On Quality AND Student Success: The Dream Team (Keynote) The last 10 years have seen the rise of large-scale student success efforts focused on helping more and more diverse students finish what they start in higher education. In this presentation, we'll explore how quality online and blended learning - including competency-based options - have expanded access and success in higher education. Next, we'll dive into how the digital signal coming from these efforts has informed and improved student success work, especially advising and strategic-nudging outreach. Finally, we'll present strategies for leading efforts to connect quality and student success work with a special focus on fostering systems and cultures that significantly improve quality, student completion, and career success.

12:45 PM - 1:45 PM - Register online
Academic Integrity in an Interconnected World (Panel)

Academic institutions seem to be facing an accelerating threat to integrity and, consequently, to the credibility of academic degrees (especially those earned online). Growing in both number and scope, these incidents include - but go well beyond - student cheating. For example, acquisition and sale of an institution's course material, such as assignments and exams, appears to be increasing through both the manipulation of students to share materials and cyber attacks. Panelists from some of the leading innovative online institutions will share their strategies, policies, and actions to ensure academic integrity.

Additional sessions are available on October 31st and November 1st. If you prefer to register on your own to view these sessions live or to access the recordings later, please visit the Quality Matters website. You will need a QM account to register. Space is limited to 500 virtual seats.

Although many of the things you do in face-to-face classes can be done in online courses, you will find the planning process different. Rather than recreating what you are doing face-to-face, you will want to re-think and re-design your course for the online environment, incorporating tools and resources that are available online. It all starts with course design, specifically, and aligned course design. By the end of the workshop, you will know how to bring your syllabus into alignment.

The Want to Save Time? Align Now Workshop is sponsored by the Office of Academic Innovation at Towson University. 

Date:  October 24, 2018
Time:  12:30-1:30 p.m.
Location: Cook Library 404B
Facilitator: Dr. Sara Tarr, ClearAlignment

The workshop is offered in person at the Towson campus and online via web conferencing software.

To attend this workshop, please register with Towson University.

Try the Ultra Course Preview Five steps to planning your Ultra roadmap

During the FA2018 semester, UMBC faculty are invited to explore how their current (or “Original”) courses will convert to the Ultra Experience.

The Ultra Course Preview conversion tool allows you to convert an existing Original course and see what it looks like in the Ultra Experience. Blackboard provides a conversion log with a list of Original features and functions that change in Ultra or those that won't carry forward if you choose to convert the course to Ultra. All faculty who are teaching a Blackboard course during the FA2018 semester will receive an Ultra Course Preview course shell, which can be used as a sandbox to import or copy an existing Original course.

Where is my Ultra Course Preview shell?

The Ultra Course Preview shell is located on the main Courses page under the Assorted Dates section toward the bottom. The name of the Ultra Course Preview shell is username’s Ultra Course Preview Sandbox.

where is my Ultra Course preview?

Since the Ultra Course Preview is intended to explore rather than build, any changes you made to your imported course in the Ultra Course Preview mode are lost if you switch back to the Original Course View. Faculty may request the Ultra Course Preview to be enabled on any previously delivered course as long as the course is unavailable to students. Please open an RT ticket and request “Ultra Course Preview” in the subject.

Five steps to planning your Ultra roadmap

1. Learn about the Ultra Experience and how it changes your course

Attend one of our monthly Ultra Experience orientation sessions. Learn about about training opportunities, course conversion, and other features exclusive to the Ultra Experience.

2. Review your course & determine if it is current ready for Ultra

Use our course inventory form to assess the type and frequency of Original tools you use most often. This tool will help Instructional Technology staff align your course needs with the current features and functionality of the Ultra Course View.

3. Discuss your Ultra adoption roadmap with instructional technology staff

Stop by one of our walk-in walk-in support clinics or schedule an appointment with our staff (via RT) to review your course inventory.

4. Select & attend training that best fits your schedule or personal preference

We encourage faculty to attend at least one Ultra-specific training session. Several options are available including self-paced Ultra Essentials, Skill Builder workshops and webinars, and the Ultra Experience Boot Camp.

5. Decide on a strategy that fits your course or schedule: Convert or redesign

Faculty have several options with Ultra:

  • If you’re ready for Ultra, you can permanently switch your course to Ultra and update it after it is converted.

  • If you’re ready for Ultra, but you don’t want to convert your course, you can redesign your course from scratch.

  • If you need more time to prepare for Ultra, you can return your sandbox to the Original Course View and revise the content, organization, and tool settings for a smoother transition before converting later.

Visit our Ultra Course Adoption Center for helpful resources and tools including a course adoption guide, course inventory, and course roadmap.

As always, if you have any questions, please consider the following options:
