Try Out the Updated Moodle

If you are teaching a hybrid or online course this summer, we strongly urge you to use the University’s updated Moodle, moodle.louisiana.edu. Sign up to teach your Summer 2015 course on the updated Moodle, by using this form (click here).

Beginning with the Fall 2015 semester, all faculty will use the updated Moodle 2.7 version. The updated version of Moodle includes a host of new features to support teaching, learning, and mobile access. To watch a video about the updated navigation features, click here.

To request to have your course content moved to the updated version of Moodle, click here. Please allow at least one business day for your request to be fulfilled. Moving your old courses to the updated Moodle must occur before you can import your content into your Summer 2015 course.

 

Adobe Connect Web-conferencing Tool

Consider incorporating synchronous sessions using Adobe Connect to increase student engagement in your online course. Sign up to use Adobe Connect with your Summer 2015 class by completing this form (click here). In these virtual classrooms (not physical rooms, but rooms on the Internet), you can deliver presentations or show videos, use the whiteboard to work problems, engage students through voice and chat features, share documents, poll students, and/or record your live online class session(s) to share. For more information about Adobe Connect, click here.

 

Virtual Proctoring

If you plan to use Examity or ProctorU to have your Summer 2015 course exams virtually proctored, please alert us at least 2-3 weeks prior to the first exam you intend to offer with Examity or ProctorU by completing this form (click here). For more information about Examity and ProctorU, visit our EduTools webpage.

 

New Authentication Service

Examity now offers a new service level called Level AA (Auto-Authentication). Level AA is ideal for those instances when a quick, easy and inexpensive method is needed to authenticate a student before access is given to an assignment or quiz. Level AA enables students to snap pictures of their ID and face and to verify a unique code in order to access the exam. To read more, click here
