The document summarizes Kate Boardman's presentation on getting started with Blackboard at the University of Durham. Some key points: - The University of Durham has around 10,000 students and 800 staff across two campuses and chose the Blackboard learning management system. - An initial small pilot was expanded to over 380 courses across most departments and over 6,000 students within a year. - Support for staff and students included training sessions, documentation, and a test environment. Implementation was done gradually on a departmental level. - Ongoing efforts focused on expanding use across more programs and services, increasing uptake by staff and students, and promoting best practices for pedagogical use of the tools

Editor's Notes
- You might be wondering whether anything I can say is relevant to you - you may have a traditional view of the University of Durham as the old, traditional model of a collegiate university, a slow, perhaps lumbering beast which keeps itself to itself, its nose in the air, and would be one of the last places to be reading and voluntarily at the forefront of advances in new technologies. And you may be right - we are a traditional old university, we are: SLIDE But we are also looking to the future - in a single academic year, we are getting famous for our modernism too. And this has not been achieved by a huge team of support staff - there’s three of us. So you may find that in fact our experience can be useful to you, which is why I’m here today.
- Develop own - like Leeds! Experience of NLE TLTP3 Blackboard - WebCT - Lotus Learning Space etc
- NELE meetings
- From pilots, then wanted to offer duo to any member of staff who asked for it, then gradually to permeate whole departments (Durham isn’t really an institution where you say this WILL happen) Aimed eventually - 5 years? 3 years?to be cross campus
- Geography 1 > 2 > 4 > 6 = all first year courses
- Without level 3, LDAP comparisons will enable as many minimisations of workload as possible, adding together all batch files, comparing and then squashing to 375s/
