Hello Jordan, our team have heard that other universities are recommending that lectures contain closed captions/subtitles for students who may have hearing impairments. What's UoD approach for this?
Thank you,
Suzanne

Forgive me if this is not the correct forum for this question. I started at Dundee around 5months ago and I have just found out that the Centre for Medical Education use the Moodle VLE, yet I have only ever heard discussion of Blackboard before now.

Is anyone available to have a discussion about the availability of Moodle vs Blackboard, in my experience Moodle has several advantages over Blackboard and as we transition to more and more online teaching and learning I would like to know more about what can be provided and used.

Many thanks

Andrew

I need thoughts on how to make the whole process of the online part of the blended learning more engaging - so far I have short lecture bites rather than and hour of me groaning on ,  putting in questions and telling students to think about answers and adding seriously irrelevant "easter-eggs" that give them something to look for as they listen to the lectures.

Is it better to have a greater number of  shorter topic "lectures" instead of the traditional 1 hour lectures which can be overwhelming for students?

Need for IT (hardware and software) to facilitate improved quality video resources (practical demonstrations, video lectures, etc). Possibly solutions such as Crisp software, noise cancelling cards, recording studios/labs.

the systems have to be compatible with nhs computers, because we tend to get presentations ready at work

I've struggled to see the chat this morning through Chrome with the session and have just had to install Firefox.  Is there guidance for best platforms that we can provide to students/staff who may need different software
