Building assessments into Blackboard can become rather time consuming, but there is a workaround! Humber is proud to provide faculty with a campus-wide license for Respondus. Fully compatible with Blackboard, Respondus is a premiere exam authoring tool that allows faculty to preview questions before publishing them to the LMS, publish assessments directly to Blackboard, create single exams or exam pools, as well as print exams and save files to MS Word.

Participants will explore how teaching and learning can support an internationalized curriculum and international students.
