Connect with Blackboard Collaborate at the Virtual School Symposium

Guest post by Paul Roberge I’m very excited to head to Indiana to attend the Virtual School Sympsoiusm (VSS) next week. For virtual schools, Blackboard Collaborate serves as a replacement for the physical buildings and infrastructure. Everything that a brick and mortar school does – from teaching, parent visits, conducting exams, to guidance counseling – can all happen online in Blackboard Collaborate sessions. Blackboard Collaborate is an education friendly, interactive, extensible and reliable virtual classroom environment that provides a student experience chalked full of collaboration and peer-to-peer interaction. If you are attending VSS, we want to connect with you. Come join us for Dessert and Drinks at the NCAA Hall of Fame or just stop by the Blackboard booth #73 to say hello. You can also schedule a one-on-one meeting with me, our regional vice president, Paul Shiffman, or our regional sales manager, Marc Zavala.  We welcome the opportunity to sit down with you. To set up an appointment, please email marc.zavala@blackboard.com. We are looking forward to meeting you!
