Building content that is mobile friendly should be on everyone’s radar when it comes to educating today’s Generation C student. The first step is to maximize the free Blackboard Mobile app, available on iOS and Google Play. The Bb app allows faculty to customize courses, view/edit discussion postings, launch announcements, view content, check your roster, and upload documents using Dropbox. Second of all, mobile friendly content can be built directly in the Bb course environment using the mobile assessment tool and pre-built HTML5 templates. Join this workshop to see how to tap into mobile teaching and learning.

  • What to say when you introduce your presentation
  • Where to stand and when to move
  • Using the hand held remote

You'll practice for a few minutes, and then try teaching what you learned to someone else in the group, with professional guidance.
