Updated Blackboard Orientation Video for Students
The newest Blackboard Orientation video released in 2022 now has over 10K Views. In the previous video, that reached over 30K views, the topics covered were specific to my department. After evaluating many of the frequently asked questions from students that were technology related but not directly related to my department, I decided that the video would be more effective for students if I include other topics outside of Blackboard. The new orientation has been a huge success with our 100% online students and on-campus students as well. This video was designed using Camtasia.
