| Making Life Easier: Additional Software for Use With Blackboard |
In this class we will review the Impatica and Respondus software packages. Impatica transforms your PowerPoint presentations into Java files. How does that help? It creates a file that can't be downloaded or printed and compresses the file. Students view the file within the Bb platform. Respondus helps you create quizzes and upload them into Blackboard without having to cut and paste your information in the platform. It's a huge time saver. |

Participants will need to log onto Blackboard and access Wimba at least 15 minutes before class begins. Deadline to Sign-Up: October 9, 2008 |
