Exemplary Blackboard Presence

The Learning and Teaching Enhancement Unit is pleased to announce its final event of the year.

On Wednesday 18 December (10:00-14:30), we will be hosting an online Mini Conference looking at Exemplary Blackboard Presence.

We’re delighted to be joined by two external presenters.

• Carol Chatten is from the University of Edge Hill and will be showcasing their Medical and Education Course. This course recently won Blackboard’s ECP.
• Robert Farmer from the University Northampton will be sharing their course on Critical Thinking which also won Blackboard’s ECP.

Also joining us to share their winning courses are School of Education’s Panna Karlinger and Law and Criminology’s Lauren Harvey. Both entered our internal Exemplary Course Award last year.

We’re hoping that this event will inspire attendees and give colleagues ideas as to how they can develop their courses ahead of Semester 2.

We’re also using this event as a springboard to start thinking about an enhanced Blackboard presence.

And finally, we’ll be sharing the latest AI Design Assistant tool that we’re looking to enable in January: AI Conversations. This builds on the other AI Design Assistant tools that we already have enabled in Blackboard.

Colleagues can book for this half day event via the online booking system and a Teams invitation will be sent out.

We hope that you can join us.

Do let us know if you have any questions (elearning@aber.ac.uk).
