Week's End Report - Sept. 11, 2015

Tip of the Week!

You may have received, or may receive, from your students accommodation paperwork from Disability Support Services. An accommodation that is made for many students is allowing extra time on tests and quizzes. Fortunately, Blackboard has made this very simple!

Training Opportunity

The Center for Instructional Technology (C4IT) will be offering two sections of IVYC251 Course Mentor Certification this fall. The first course begins on September 14th, the second on October 19th. Successful completion of BBRD101 and IVYC101 are required prior to signing up for this course. Space in these courses is extremely limited so they ask that anyone who signs up commit to completing the course. 

If you'd like more information you may contact Adam Vorderstrasse at avorderstrasse@ivytech.edu

If you'd like to register for the course, sign up through the Training Portal in Campus Connect.
