March Technology of the Month

Blackboard Achievements

The achievements tool allows instructors to create opportunities for students to earn recognition for their accomplishments in courses.  Instructors can designate criteria for issuing rewards to students in the form of both badges and certificates. Students can see which rewards they have earned and what is required to receive additional rewards, providing insight into learning progression toward defined competencies (help.blackboard.com).   

The Instructional Technology Team will be holding a workshop on Blackboard Achievements on Tuesday, March 10, 2015. Click here  to RSVP and see event details.
