Your faculty may also be offering sessions focusing on Technology Enhanced Learning on an ongoing basis, there are also the following options for staff development:

Self-help
For self-help opportunities such as guides and screencasts, please see the Bb-support tab in shuspace or previouos blog posts on the Home tab.  You can also request 1-to-1 support with a Faculty e-learning adviser through the Bb-support tab in shuspace.

Just starting with e-learning?
If you are new to e-learning, we recommend a 1-to-1 with your Faculty e-learning adviser as an initial introduction to e-learning.  They will help introduce you to some of the possibilities in e-learning relevant to your context and help you get started with using Blackboard.  We also have an e-learning starter pack that they will provide you with in hard-copy (it’s available online as well).  You can submit a request for training in the Bb-support tab in shuspace or contact your faculty e-learning representative directly to arrange the 1-to-1.

Want a session for a specific group of staff?
We have run sessions on a variety of topics around e-learning for groups of staff in the past.  These have been targetted at specific subject groups, groups of course administrators, programme leadership teams and course teams.  We have a list of example sessions, thought we can deliver tailored opportunities to meet any group’s needs.  Please contact your Faculty e-learning contact if you are interested on scheduling something on behalf of your group.
