Good Morning Developers!

We have a small group of developers this round so you will be getting lots of personalized attention from me :-) Please don't hesistate to ask me any questions as you go through the process, that is what I am here for! Just a few reminders:
  • The 25% completion date is March 3rd. Please let me know if you have any concerns about being able to meet this deadline.
  • Thank you to Sherry Sonnenberg for the following tip: If you are trying to copy from a word document into Blackboard you might be having some difficulty. Try pasting the information from the word document into "notepad" and then copy from notepad and paste it into the online editor. It adds an extra step but may alleviated some of your frustrations!
  • REMINDER: Please note that your documents should be saved in Word 2003 rather then Word 2007. Blackboard manages 2003 documents better then 2007 documents because of the new extension. We are looking to update Bb but in the meantime please save the files as 2003 for now. you are not sure how to do this please see this help document: http://students.msbcollege.edu/helpdesk/pdfs/save_in_2007.pdf
  • REMINDER: Please make sure you are not using additional resources that have not been bundled with the textbook in order to develop your course. If the publisher has sent you additional items that go along with the book, before using them in your development please make sure that the students will be receiving these additional resources in addition to the textbook. Often times these additional resources come at an additional cost for the students.

Have a great week!

Amy
