Recording the session
Using CollaborateTM
• Office hours with students (any day – any time)
• Class Review Sessions
• Student Group meetings
Technical issues ?
• Web browsers and settings
• Video / Sound checks – plan ahead
• Can phone in to session if audio is not working
Impact
• Transformed on-line course experience
• More rewarding as a professor – connecting with class
• Students love it! Can access recording if miss session
• Enable class participation with other students – similar to
“ïn-class” experience.
It’s catching on !
• Sharing with other colleagues –
• Enabler of teaching and learning in our increasingly
connected world – and emphasis on digital everything!
Bottom Line – Collaborating is good!
• We can still connect “real-time” with our students, and they
can connect with us – in the on-line teaching environment
• There are many platforms – this is just my lived experience
with Blackboard CollaborateTM
