Happy August!
Moodle will be unavailable on Wednesday, August 11, as we upgrade the software for the fall semester. Downtime will begin at 7 AM Eastern. The LITS System Status page will be updated when the work is complete.
This fall, we are returning to the usual practice of faculty turning on their courses whenever they are ready to share them with students. We appreciate your cooperation this past year, as giving our courses a uniform start in a year of remote learning ensured a consistent student experience. Now the ball is back in your court! For a refresher on how to make your course visible to students, please visit the Moodle Help Guide.
If you would like assistance as you prepare your Moodle course shells for the upcoming academic year, the Educational Technology team (previously known as the Digital Pedagogy team) is currently available for virtual appointments. Both in-person and virtual appointments will be available beginning Monday, August 16. Book an appointment here. We particularly encourage new Gradescope users or those unfamiliar with Moodle Gradebook to contact us early; let us help you get set up for a smooth fall semester in a complicated world!
Thanks,
Lindsey, Sarah, Matt, and Stephanie
