A Method to Our Madness

From David Robinson, LMS Administrator - Georgia Gwinnett College

What were we thinking? Why would a brand new college in the throes of creating a college culture, constructing a campus, and preparing for accreditation decide to pilot a still-in-beta product with live courses in an untested integration? When I put it that way, maybe we are crazy, or maybe as was said of Hamlet, “Though this be madness, yet there is method in it.”

Plan Ahead Using MyBbWorld

First-timer or long-termer, BbWorld can be an overwhelming experience! There’s much to see and even more to do. But there are a few tools that can help you make the most of your experience in Washington, DC regardless of if you’re attending BbWorld, the Developers Conference (or both)!

Community Impact @ BbWorld

Hello BbWorld attendees – I have some exciting news for you about a brand new initiative that I think you’re really going to enjoy.

This year at BbWorld, we want your help giving back to the DC Community. On Monday, July 13, please join me, fellow conference go-ers and Blackboard staff for the inaugural BbWorld volunteer event. In partnership with Greater DC Cares, a Washington DC-based nonprofit organization, we will assemble science toolkits that will be donated to DC public schools, helping teachers educate K-12 students about the environment and sustainability practices.
