Noticed a problem today with the voice board on Blackboard -- students could view the previous posts but couldn't post new ones! Not much point in that!
I think it was an oversight of mine when I created the board, as there is a small checkbox to click to enable this obviously important feature. Anyway I recreated the board, tested it and deleted the old empty board. All works now!
This actually gave me the opportunity to send the class-list a group SMS and an email to ensure they knew the problem was fixed and that I expected them to get the small task finished before we meet again. I used a feature of our student record management system (enabled at enrolment) to send the group messages. Down the track, I'll make sure I refer to the group SMS/email as an example of e-communication aiding the whole distance-learning process.
