The CTL Presents: "Blackboard: Building Quality Assessments Using Respondus"
View in full page
  • When:
    February 27, 2014 6:05pm

Where: 
North Campus, Room D225J (Lab)

Building assessments into Blackboard can become rather time consuming, but there is a workaround! Beginning this fall, Humber is proud to provide their faculty with a campus-wide license of Repondus. 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.
