After a lengthy and rigorous competitive tender process, Facilities Management is pleased to announce Best Service Pros will be taking over the role of managing our cleaning contract from Sodexo at both North and Lakeshore campuses, as of July 13, 2019.

During the process, Facilities Management took the opportunity to significantly tighten up the specifications, including adding additional labour in strategic areas including weekends and event setups. In keeping with Humber’s commitment to operational stewardship and service excellence we have built performance indicators for quality control and cleanliness into the new contract, with a focus on quality assurance audits and satisfaction surveys to drive continuous improvement.

Provincial legislation under Bill 7 means that all cleaners and staff currently cleaning Humber must be offered a position under the new vendor, so you will not see many new faces.

We are working hard to make the transition as smooth as possible. If you have any questions or concerns please contact Spencer Wood, Director Facilities Maintenance, at x5242 or Daniel Alonzo, Associate Director Facilities Management, at x4415.

Hello,

We are excited to share with you that Humber’s Panopto Platform has just been upgraded to its latest release (7.0). We’ve highlighted some exciting and relevant features for you – which are now available for you to use.

What’s New

  • New Mobile Video Player
    Panopto’s redesigned mobile video player enhances support for learners who are on-the-go. Learners may now, from their phone: navigate the video’s table of contents, search within a video, take notes, partake in discussion, and rate the video.
  • Fill-in-the-blanks Quizzes (and more)
    Creators now have the ability to add a “fill in the blank” type of question within their video quizzes. Creators can also see combined results from all quizzes within a single video.
  • Download Notes & Discussion Threads
    Students can now export a copy of their notes, along with the time they took them within the video. Creators now have the ability to export the discussion thread within their video.
  • Improved Mashup Tool within Blackboard
    The Panopto Mashup tool within Blackboard just got better. Creators can now search across all videos within the Mashup tool – which means – less time scrolling, more time embedding!
  • Panopto for Mac Improvements
    Beta Feature: The Panopto for Mac recording tool now captures your computer’s audio (in addition to your video and voice).

Panopto News

A special thank you goes out to each and every one of our 950+ users. More than 1,350 videos have been uploaded to the platform.

Training

We will be scheduling a new round of workshops throughout Fall 2019 - keep an eye out on the Communiqué for updates. Individualized training is available to all faculty and employees over the summer.

If you have any questions about Panopto at Humber, or have any feedback or success stories, feel free to reach out to Humber’s Panopto Support Team, who will be happy to assist.

Sincerely,


Your friendly Panopto administrators
Darren Richards & Lisa DiBarbora
