If you would like to learn about some of the new features we will have after the upgrade on Tuesday, August 9, go to http://www.blackboard.com/viewlets/viewlets.htm and check the material under Application Pack 2 and Application Pack 3. We currently are running Application Pack 1.
The most exciting new features, to me, are:
- Assessment and Survey Results Download (http://www.blackboard.com/viewlets/assessmentsurvey.swf)
- Adaptive Release (http://www.blackboard.com/viewlets/adaptiverelease.swf)
- Randomize Multiple Choice Answers (http://www.blackboard.com/viewlets/Assessment_Enhancements.swf)
- Performance Dashboard (http://www.blackboard.com/viewlets/performance_dashboard.swf)
- What's New Module (http://www.blackboard.com/viewlets/WhatsNewModule.swf)
- Gradebook Null Option (this feature allows averages to accurately ignore items that have not been completed yet - http://www.blackboard.com/viewlets/GradebookNullOption.swf)
