ITS will begin deleting spring 2009 eLearning sections the week of May 26.

Instructors with eLearning sections should take steps to ensure necessary content and grades are saved prior to the deletion date.

Step-by-step instructions for following end-of-semester procedures are available online at http://itsinfo.tamu.edu/resources/guides/eos.html

If you have questions about your eLearning section or would like additional assistance, please contact us at its@tamu.edu

Wikis provide a means for online collaboration– enhancing the tools currently available through the current eLearning LMS. Future plans include conducting wiki workshops and including instruction in the use of wikis for teaching in the ITS Faculty Training Institute to be offered early summer 2009.
