DESCRIPTION
How EesySoft helps to increase Blackboard adoption Understanding how Blackboard is being used by our teachers and students is crucial for making strategic, educational, and support choices. EesyReports provides us with realtime informationabout how our Blackboard application is being used by teachers and students. In addition, we are using EesyMessaging to promote technology adoption by transformingour Blackboard support blog into an “incontext help platform”, providing our staff and students with just-in-time and just-in-place information when they are active in Blackboard. During the presentation we will demonstrate the practical use of Eesysoft and discuss the added value of the product for the Maastricht University Blackboard community.

– Specific message for a small group of users only if they perform a specific action?
– We have tons of information how to use Blackboard tools
• Blackboard manuals
• Own support blog
