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.

Adding video and audio content to Blackboard has never been easier.  Create a repository of YouTube videos or create your own podcasts or short video clips and directly load or embed this content into the Learn environment.  It might seem like a daunting task, creating, editing and uploading your own videos, but the job does not have to be a difficult one and in most cases can be done rather quickly.  Participants will get tips on how to efficiently edit their footage and how to upload their finished product.  Faculty will also be coached on how videos can be used in their Blackboard site and how these videos can be used as podcasts for their students, clients and colleagues.

The CTL Presents: "Making a Dent in the Universe - Examining the passion-education-vocation connection"
View in full page
  • When:
    March 26, 2014 4:20pm
Date/Time: 
March 26, 2014 - 4:20pm
Where: 
Lakeshore Campus, Room F103

Time: 4:20 p.m. - 4:10 p.m.

Students, when receiving advice about program and career choices, hear again and again that they need to “find their passion”, but they don’t really understand what that means. They can all tell you that their passion is something they love to do, but that alone doesn’t help them choose a path. How can we help them gain greater clarity? This presentation examines what passion for the work really means and how we and our students can connect our passions with our education and work. Along the way we’ll look at the connection between problem solving and passion, how to use your passion to create a context for your learning, and why what frustrates you is as important as what you love.
