Another fly by week. I am out of time before I am out of things to do. We did three bright space training sessions this week and have a couple more scheduled for next week.
During one session I had a little technical trouble where I wasn’t able to share my screen. It turned out pretty well though. At first I thought I would have Jen share as I made changes behind the scenes but we switched to me guiding Jen through how to do things. This kind of forced us to be slow and methodical and it gave participants time to see the steps. Most importantly, we stayed calm and it all worked out. In fact, we did a bit of that in a different session where I was sharing screen and Jen wanted to add something to the conversation.
Jen and I have also been planning a list of ‘essentials’ that faculty will want/need to know about working with Brightspace. We have a list of 12 that we need to create WordPress pages for. These will be followed by a more robust list of ‘how to’ items.
I have started my second module of the final Brightspace certificate course. I was hoping to have the quiz written before Monday but that may not happen. I aim to be finished all three modules before the break. I have 5 working days left to get it all done.
I captured this parrot (in a picture 🙂 at a magical place called Las Caletas.
