This Friday, July 18th at 6:00pm, these servers will be taken off-line. This will impact connectivity to all network shared drives with letters I: through Z: with the exception of the P: (Peoplesoft) drive. Connectivity to the shared drives should be fully restored by 10:00pm that evening. While there is no action required for end users, people may want to reboot their machine Monday morning to ensure all the drive mappings reconnect properly.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Thank you,

To support faculty ongoing Blackboard support needs,  DoIT will be offering additional weekly drop-in hours beginning Wednesday, August 20. A DoIT staff member will be available to work one-on-one with users who show up during the designated times.

Drop-In sessions will focus on one of the many tools we support, including the following:
Given variation in user needs and scheduling, the Drop-In format will be as follows:
  1. Orientation (5 minutes): A quick overview of what the tool does. If all you want is a demo, come early.
  2. Recommendations (10 minutes): 1-2 tips based on our observations from providing faculty support, as well identification of effective practices  and practitioners.
  3. Q & A (40 minutes): This is your time. What do you want to know? What's a problem you'd like to solve or a new opportunity you'd like to explore?
In addition to the F2F sessions, DoIT will also offer virtual drop-in sessions using Blackboard's web-conferencing tool, Collaborate. Any faculty members with Bb questions may participate in these online sessions between 12:00 – 1:00 PM on the appointed Wednesday by visiting the following link: www.umbc.edu/go/collaborate

Please note that these are not formal Blackboard training classes. Additional dates and times may be added as demand warrants.
