We have been exploring how to manage courses and users, and have been testing the third-party applications we use at SPS (Panopto, VoiceThread, Digication, etc.).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The CUNY LMS Transition team is making progress on providing access for faculty and staff to explore the Brightspace platform. Once you have access, you will be able to work in practice course sites so that you can get some hands-on experience with Brightspace. The course migration test from Blackboard to Brightspace is also in process. The university plan is to migrate past course content, and SPS has also requested migration of our course development sites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the meantime, the OFDIT team is preparing training resources tailored to SPS, while the CUNY team still has a few more sessions of the CUNY Brightspace Demo and Q&amp;A workshops scheduled:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Brightspace Demo for Faculty<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/us02web.zoom.us\/meeting\/register\/tZAvcu2qpj0qGNV-Bc4bCJoC9mbeEqizDUPI#\/registration\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Register Here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Nov. 29 at 11:00am<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Brightspace Q&amp;A<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/us02web.zoom.us\/meeting\/register\/tZAqd-quqzwsHdWKBnl9u_KQA_OutDWy4bap#\/registration\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Register Here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Nov. 16 at 11:00am<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nov. 30 at 1:00pm<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, we share with you the following message from the CUNY University Faculty Senate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Dear Colleagues,<br>As part of its responsibilities for this academic year, the University Faculty Senate\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www1.cuny.edu\/sites\/cunyufs\/committees\/senate\/standing\/libraries-it\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Library and Information Technology Committee <\/a>(UFS-LIT) is charged with tracking the transition to the new Learning Management System (LMS), Brightspace.
