Now that the exam boards are largely complete we have to finally disable the unsupported Turnitin building block in Blackboard. This will not impact those good people who have been using the supported LTI integration. More information at

Blackboard is suffering from a global DNS issue that is impacting access for many users. A fix has been deployed but will take time to propagate across the network. Further info here status.blackboard.com but website only visible to those not impacted by the DNS problem! 🤔
Should universities be less concerned about assessment integrity right now, and focus more on their provision in relation to the future of the job market? #tooearly ? – at Bangor, Northern Ireland

We have just gone live with Blackboard Ally, on a short pilot. Not ideal timing, but necessary. All @UlsterUni students now benefit from accessible content in Blackboard, automatically created at the point of upload. Further information at: blogs.ulster.ac.uk/accessibi…

A great example of #hyflex done properly. I expect that wireless microphone is used to capture lecturer as well as a roaming microphone to capture student questions. But how does this scale to a large university over 4 campuses? – at Bangor, Northern Ireland
Spent some time on the road visiting #CornwallSLC & #BrockvilleSLC campuses to setup rigs for a #hyflex session. Excited to meet @JohnCamWright & Patrick H in-person for the 1st time since they joined @SLCTeachLearn! Also reconnected w @AWatsonCovey! #Teamwork #Teaching #EdTech

If you build an asynchronous classroom now, no matter what happens this fall, you'll be ready.
You can teach an asynchronous class synchronously, you can't do it in reverse.

Unsurprisingly, in 20/21, all kinds of records were broken: VLE use, Video Use, webinars, 1-2-1s. Most satisfyingly, we have observed a significant increase in digital confidence across the institution. Help us plan next year 🚀👇 ulster.sharepoint.com/sites/…
