Decommissioning Timelines for eClass Powered by Blackboard Vista

As we are in the final stages of our LMS transition, Spring 2012 is the last term that credit courses will be offered on eClass powered by Blackboard Vista. We encourage all instructors to run their courses on eClass powered by Moodle if at all possible. Instructors who require the ability to run Summer 2012 courses on eClass Vista can submit their requests to vpit@ualberta.ca.

The last date for instructors to access the eClass Vista system will be August 31, 2012. All static content (content pages, files) from eClass Vista will be backed up and available for migration to eClass Moodle via the course creation system. However, user-generated content (discussion posts, assignment submissions etc.) in eClass Vista will NOT be archived.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact ctl_at_ualberta.ca.
