Dear Blackboard Users,
On April 1st the Learning Platforms team in Academic Technologies, a part of UMIT, will be announcing the availability of the Blackboard Collaborate system for webinars and web conferencing. The event will take place 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm. You can attend in person at Richter Library, Room 305, or online at the http://tinyurl.com/umiamibb web site. To register, please go to http://iacevents.org and select the session you wish to attend.
Blackboard Collaborate has been available inside of Blackboard Learn for a while. Now it will be available outside of Blackboard Learn as a full webinar and web conferencing system. Blackboard Collaborate supports video, audio, presentations, and screen sharing. People do not have to be part of UM in order to be a participant or a moderator of a session.
If you are interested in using the Blackboard Collaborate system, please attend the exciting announcement on April 1st. For more information about this event, or special accommodations, please contact Rick Ramos at either 305-284-3949 or r.ramos3@miami.edu .
Thank you,
Rick Ramos
Help Desk Supervisor
