If you want a behind the scenes view of a well-designed online course, tune-in for this virtual Brown Bag workshop by Jeannette Campos, an instructor in UMBC's online master's program in Instructional Systems Design.

Using Wimba Classroom from her home in New England, Campos will show how she's using Blackboard, wikis, and screen casting (short, narrated video tutorials) to organize and energize her online class, which routinely ranks in UMBC's top 50 Most Active Blackboard courses. In fact, if you want a sneak peek at all the online bells & whistles she'll demonstrate live, check out Campos' introductory course overview video all students see when they login to her Blackboard course: http://www.screencast.com/t/02KrrBJNns.

Note: Wimba will be hosting this virtual brown bag, which you can tune into from your own computer when the event starts (be sure to run the one-time "setup wizard" first). But if you'd like to attend a "joint viewing" with colleagues in ECS 023, please register at www.umbc.edu/brownbag. Light refreshments will be provided.
