Ben Worth shared several things. Discussion of when the Blackboard upgrade should be installed. We may ask for a speaker to come to campus during finals week. He also mentioned that the iPhone app for Blackboard doesn't do anything, really.
Greg Rickert shared some information from a Blackboard training on how to do Exemplary Course program. He shared the course rubrics, and has 81+ PowerPoint slides if you want more.
The rubric itself is at http://kb.blackboard.com/download/attachments/47153583/2010+Blackboard+Exemplary+Course+Rubric.docx
(downloaded a little funky for me, but I did not have the latest Word to view it)
Some good tools:
Slideshare - PowerPoint on the web (perhaps with audio)
Ispringfree - convert PowerPoint to flash
Jing - online video
(screen capture - with control+PrintScreen is very useful)
The new Blackboard may have a table of contents feature (like SoftChalk does)
Some discussion of Time Zones - one instructor somewhere uses GMT for all deadlines, etc. Hope our Blackboard see the times in EST.
