TT: Enabling the Digital SFQ in Blackboard 

Are you currently part of the Digital SFQ rollout? If so, enabling the SFQ tool in your Blackboard environment/course site is a critical step in encouraging your students to fill out the SFQ and increasing your student response rates. Enabling the tool is easy to do and combining tool availability with well-timed Blackboard announcements and reminders is an effective way of deploying the Digital SFQ. In addition to the scheduled workshop times below, faculty can drop in anytime during Studio hours to receive one-on-one support when it comes to enabling the Blackboard SFQ tool and any other Blackboard related support queries.
