More Information Current Projects Distance Learning takes advantage of changing technology to offer DePaul University courses outside of the traditional classroom setting. Here at DePaul, the Office of Distance Learning supports a variety of distance learning efforts throughout the University. We are also active in a variety of consortia dedicated to distance learning. Videoconferencing with the United Nations Video Conference Sessions Ambassador Ahmad Kamal, Permanent Representative of Pakistan to the United Nations, is currently hosting video conference sessions with the United Nations Ambassador's Club and DePaul University. Following enthusiastic support from the faculty and students, we have determined that Blackboard would be a useful addition to the tools we support for online and web-enhanced teaching and learning.
Blackboard is available to all faculty members to use in conjunction with their classes.
Blackboard, formerly know as CourseInfo, brings together web pages for content with discussion boards, email, a virtual classroom for real time communication, drop boxes for document sharing, online testing, an online grade book, a class calendar and more.
