The main objective of this five part series is to help participants regain a sense of inner peace, confidence, and awareness through simple breathing techniques and meditation. Breath and mind are intrinsically connected and different breathing techniques can benefit participants who lead academic processes as they learn ways to calm the mind with a tool as simple as their own breath.

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.
