New TEL Website Launch

**Drumroll**

We’re incredibly excited to announce that we’ve got a shiny new website!
We’ve given our pages a complete overhaul and we hope you’ll agree it looks much smarter.

Take a look at our promo video below to find out about the changes:

You’ll notice we’ve reorganised some of the pages and support information so that it’s easier for you to find all of the TEL related help and advice you need.

We hope you like the changes and find the site much easier to navigate and locate what you’re looking for.

Please remember to update any links in your course information and learning resources with our new pages.

Blackboard Rollover 22-23

Blackboard modules for the 22-23 academic year are now available and ready for you to start working on.

As in previous years you will need to re-register for access to the new modules (even if you are the module leader) from the staff web pages – instructions can be found here:
https://lttu.uk/support/Blackboard/Manual/accessing-new-courses.html

You may want to consider migrating content from last year’s modules. If you do this, it is very important that you do not roll over the assessment tab or any of the assessments within, as this will cause problems within your grade centre. If you roll over any tests or quizzes please note that these will not be automatically deployed, so you will need to insert them into the appropriate area within your module.

Whilst consistency is an important factor, we recognise that all modules are individual and you may want to look at some of the other tools and functionality available in Blackboard – we have a full online Blackboard guide but if you need any further support from the TEL team, or would like us to provide an advisory review of your online learning resources, please contact TEL@worc.ac.uk to arrange a session with an Academic Learning Technologist.
