=Blackboard Demonstrations=

I am involved in numerous training activities about using Blackboard - to students using Blackboard, instructors setting up their class sites, and others setting up organizations. Many of these events occur one-to-one when someone has a specific question, but I get asked to help groups of students set up e-portfolios in Blackboard each semester. The videos below can be viewed by students who want to review parts of the demonstrations of the Content Collection area and the E-Portfolio feature in Blackboard.- SWQ

For additional information about e-portfolios and Blackboard, see Portfolios, Blackboard Portfolios and How To... Blackboard

Click on the links below to view these videos on the Teacher Tube site*. The times are approximate. If you do not have a (free) Teacher Tube account, you will get a very short advertisement at the beginning of each video.======

Note: Each video will open in a new Teacher Tube window and will automatically start playing.

 * Content Collection and E-Portfolio Overview (17 minutes)
 * Blackboard E-Portfolios: Examples (19 minutes)
 * Getting Started with the E-Portfolio Wizard (11 minutes)
 * Making Changes to Your E-Portfolio (21 minutes)
 * Sharing Your E-Portfolio (5 minutes)

* * These videos are available from the **Teacher Tube** site at http://www1.teachertube.com/ Like YouTube, this site is a collection of videos that have been added by the public. The difference is that when you upload a video on Teacher Tube, it may take up to 24 hours to be approved before the video is available. In their //About Us// area, Teacher Tube says their "goal is to provide an online community for sharing instructional videos. We seek to fill a need for a more educationally focused, safe venue for teachers, schools, and home learners. ... The service is free for everyone."

For additional information about Teacher Tube, School Tube, YouTube, etc, see a list of those resources on my Video page.

I am experimenting with other ways to link to these videos (and others that I make). The area below is where I am trying some other methods. Thank you - SWQ
