Time: 2:30 p.m. – 3:20 p.m.

Does this sound familiar? Your Blackboard sites have all started to look the same. Each course has the same content, the same color scheme, the same games and the same images. Or perhaps you have been given the exciting, and sometimes daunting task, of upgrading an online course with new content, new images, new assessments and an overall new look. Fear not! During this workshop, participants will be coached on how to bring some life back into their Blackboard sites.

Under the guidance of one our leading graphic designers, faculty and staff will be instructed on how to modify graphics, how to use some useful online resources to augment their site, how to access over 1000 objects in Humber’s own Learning Object Repository, how to potentially use your School’s eLearning Credits and how an everyday Blackboard site can come alive. Participants will also get a chance to talk, one-on-one, with an eLearning graphic designer to discuss how their specific site can be improved and how the eLearning team can help.
