(This section of the site is yet to be developed. Below is
a general description.)
The content of this section would match the workshop actually
given on designing a course using Blackboard. The workshop is
for those who have used Blackboard to post elements such as a
syllabus and announcements and would like to expand their knowledge
of what the program can do for their courses. It covers not only
the Instructor Control Panel in more detail, but gives tips on
the visual appearance and functionality of the course as a whole.
Related outside links on designing an online class would be listed
under "Related Links". Handouts given during the class
would also be available.
Proficiency Level: Intermediate
Subsections under this design sections would include:
Instructor Control Panel
Course Settings
Course Images
Student web pages
Course Calendar
Uploading html pages, images
How to handle projects, labs
Creating exciting learning environments
Characteristics of Online students and how this impacts on the
design of an online class
Using e-packages from textbook publishers
Additional Information to include in a course for student support
(i.e. providing instruction for using Excel and Powerpoint, using
the Online Library, how to evaluate good and bad resources, where
to obtain free software, additional web recourses, etc.).
