Students in the course, mostly freshmen and first-semester transfer students were paired with Charlestown residents to produce a digital story capturing a life lesson learned. As part of this effort, students were taught the technology skills necessary to produce a digital story.

On December 13th, at the Library Gallery, there was a screening of the stories. For information on that event visit the Baltimore Sunpapers story,

To date there have been almost 50 digital stories produced with Charlestown. Scroll down to the bottom of the link below to view the stories from this fall:

Full Title: Blackboard Acknowledges Delay in Processing of Safe Assign ReportsUPDATE: Blackboard released a final support bulletin on Friday, December 23, regarding the performance of Safe Assign. They report that all of the backlogged papers have been processed and that processing times are back to normal (24-48 hours). If instructors have papers without SA reports generated in 48 hours, it is possible that the papers are corrupted, and Blackboard suggests that they should now resubmit those papers. ---------------------- UPDATE: Blackboard released an updated support bulletin on Monday, December 19, regarding the performance of Safe Assign. Though new submissions are on the decline, there is still a significant delay in processing papers, and faculty should expect reports within 3-5 days. As previously announced, they request that papers not be resubmitted unless they have verified that an error with them has occurred. ---------------------- On Wednesday, December 14, Blackboard released a support bulletin that provided an update on the Safe Assign paper processing delay that has happened over the past several weeks. They confirmed that there is still a global backlog of papers waiting to be processed, and that reports will take 3-5 days to generate. They reiterate that the worst thing instructors or students can do is to resubmit a paper, as that will move the paper to the back of the processing queue. If you have papers that have not received Originality Reports within 5 days of their submission date, please submit an RT ticket and include your name, the Bb course, the specific assignment, and the paper ID. Thank you for your patience. ]]>

Full Title: Winter 2012 Dissertation House at UMBC: Jan. 17 – 20, 2012. Application Deadline: Dec. 16, 2011

If you are a Graduate Student at UMBC, and if you are working on your graduate school courses, proposal, or dissertation, then this event is for you!

The on-campus setting provides Dissertation House participants with productive and rewarding scholastic engagement. Students who participate in this program will spend each day thinking, writing, and sharing ideas about their doctoral dissertations. Students will learn effective time-management skills; learn how to set small manageable goals, and will meet with a dissertation coach in one-on-one consultations to discuss and address obstacles that might prevent them completing their degrees.

This is a weekday (9 a.m. – 5 p.m., non-residential) commitment set for the week of Tuesday, January 17 – Friday, January 20, 2012.

This information and other details about the Dissertation House can be found on: http://www.thedissertationhouse.com

Seats are limited. Students who are closest to finishing their doctoral dissertations (graduating with PhDs in 2012) will receive priority. Priority will be assigned in this order: earliest defense dates (January – April 2012 dates), May 2012 graduation, Summer 2012 graduation, December 2012 graduation. After we fill seats with our 2012 prospective graduates, we will review applications for additional slots. You must officially apply: http://dissertationhouse.wordpress.com/apply/.
