Blog – why use it?

Student journaling

Faculty “journaling” - Announcements that can be directed to an RSS reader

Ongoing team reporting

A new format for discussion

Allows richer editing

Is more challenging to “assess”

Page 8: Technology Enhanced Learning Environments Kara Monroe, Ph.D. Executive Director, Center for Instructional Technology

Blogs – How do I use it at Ivy Tech?

Within Blackboard – Journals LX

Choose the configuration options right for your particular application

Grading is more challenging than with discussions

Outside of Blackboard

No other College option is currently available

Instant Messaging – IM’ing Instant messaging is “like an email, but live” (NCIS, Season 2, Red Cell).

Stream available at: https://media.ivytech.edu/Gallery/Sqrt4qjyRYIGpk0P

Instant Messaging – Why Use It?

Connect with other faculty and staff, in your region and beyond

Help students connect with one another

Better connect with your students by holding regular “office hours”

Focus student communications to times during your “office hours”

Our IM tool has some great additional tools as a part of it – voice, video, and application sharing with more coming soon.
