RE: Placement Testing in the LMS

Many at mine do them in the summer before fall classes. Some use the LMS, some still do them in person, and some are using software like Gradescope. Thanks, Gina Gina Donovan Pronouns: she / her / hers Senior Instructional Technologist CTLA | Forum North Basement Grinnell College | Grinnell, ...

RE: Seeking for advice how to set up a library iPad loan program

I use a combination of WebCheckOut (to track who has what device and when they are due) and JAMF (to set up the devices for use and wipe them after return) to manage multiple iPads on campus. I think any sort of check out system and Mobile Device Management system works, though I think JAMF is the one ...

I believe that the person who led that movement at Morehouse was a keynote speaker at Educause ELI last year! Perhaps there is a recording of that talk somewhere? I remember it being quite interesting. Gina Donovan Pronouns: she / her / hers Senior Instructional Technologist CTLA | Forum ...

You're going to be better off self-hosting. If you use a hosting service like Anchor or Spotify (redundancy there as Anchor is owned by Spotify) you don't always retain the rights to your content and often are completely unable to retrieve it as actual files if you want to store or post them elsewhere. ...

O365 Tools as LMS?

Posted By Gina Donovan 02-01-2023 12:17:00 PM
Found In Egroup: Microsoft Tools in Education \ view thread
Is anyone currently using Office365 tools as an LMS on a campus? It would be beyond the function of LMS365, which seems to have a more corporate focus. I am interested in hearing experiences, especially ILP integrations. ------------------------------ Gina Donovan Senior Instructional Technologist Grinnell ...

We migrated from Kaltura to Panopto over the summer. So far it has been a good change. I mostly wanted to answer the question about the migration period. I did an extremely short time for migration (and ran it simultaneous to our Blackboard environment migrating to SaaS). We had a lot of problems migrating ...

I have seen demonstrations of the platform Watermark for this, though we did not opt to use the software at the time. It could be worth looking into more. Thanks, Gina Gina Donovan Pronouns: she / her / hers Senior Instructional Technologist CTLA | Forum North Basement PLEASE NOTE ...

RE: Gradescope

Found In Egroup: Instructional Technologies \ view thread
Gradescope is pretty popular across our campus! We have an enterprise license and it is installed in our LMS, which means it will sync rosters and share from Gradescope back into the LMS Grade Center. Some classes use it through the LMS, others prefer to just log directly into Gradescope. Departments ...

I would also be interested in joining a meeting. We do not currently have a One-Button Studio and have been debating if it was still a viable technology that was needed on a campus or if it was already obsolete. Thanks, Gina Gina Donovan Pronouns: she / her / hers Senior Instructional ...

We started using Gradescope during the pandemic and usage has been good. It started mostly with Comp Sci but language faculty have also picked it up, as well as natural sciences like biology and chemistry. We have it integrated into our LMS, Blackboard, which works really well. Feel free to reach out ...

RE: Video Streaming Service in Chine

Found In Egroup: Instructional Design \ view thread
Depending on the LMS you can upload videos directly into the course but 1) there will likely be no captions unless the video comes over with captions from like Zoom and 2) it will very quickly balloon the size of your course and your LMS storage. Lots of schools have file size restrictions in place so ...
