Hi y’all! We have a Class Hangout today!
All classes will meet at the same time this week. This is to help gauge how many of you are interested in joining. If there are a lot of you, we will go back to meeting by class next week!
Our Class Hangout is TODAY at 1:30-2pm. While I would love to see your faces, it is not required.
We are using iLearn and the Big Blue Button (BBB) to video conference. In case you have not used ilearn or BBB yet, here is step-by-step instructions.
- Go to https://moodle.dearbornschools.org/login/ and log in using your school ID and password
- You will see a large box that says “Enrollment Code”. In this box you will put in the code rc8qnu
- Click “Enroll”
- You will now be enrolled in “Ulfers Ancient World History”. Open this class.
- You will see three things:
– a description of the difference between Office Hours and a Class Hangout
– a link that says “BBB Class Hangout (all classes)”
– a link that says “Ulfers Office Hours (meet one-on-one)”.
6. To join the Class Hangout, scroll to “BBB Class Hangout (all classes)” and underneath it click the blue “b” titled Class Hangout (all classes, not required)
7. After you click it, you will see a button that says “Join Session”. If I am already in the video chat, you will be able to click “Join Session” and join the chat!
I will be in the conference about 1:25 pm. If you have difficulties I will try my best to answer your emails, but once there are a few of you in the Hangout, I won’t be able to respond quickly.
I also have Office Hours today! From 2-3:30 I am available by email, phone or video chat. If you want a one-on-one video chat, you will use BBB. You will go to “Ulfers Office Hours (meet one-on-one)” on the iLearn class instead. You need to let me know you want to chat and we will coordinate a time.
Looking forward to seeing some of you soon!
