Would you like to try LearnUCS? BUMP: ANNOUNCEMENT 3

I'm glad to say the testing is progressing well with the upgrade and the migration, ad we are on track for an upgrade at the start of August. The next stage is to start testing the emerging migration path.

However, there are a couple of tasks you might want to do:

• Invite one of the Elevate Team into your team meetings to discuss the new software and what opportunities it might offer for your teaching, learning and assessment


• Register using the link below for a course on the test system. This will give you a sandpit space to explore the features of the new course. We'd recommend you look at including YouTube, Flickr and Slideshare material via the mashup option, exploring the wiki and blog tools, and looking at the Self and Peer Assessment Tool.

To register for a test course complete the following form: bit.ly/learnucssandpit

If you have any questions about the Blackboard Upgrade and Migration, please email the Elevate Team, at elevate@ucs.ac.uk
