Abstract:
Building on research presented at a previous Blackboard Conference combined with ongoing teaching and implementation, this interactive session will introduce you to the concept of Sticky Content for your VLE. Employing proven strategies from business, the idea of 'sticky content' explores ways to make your course VLE a place that students will want to come back to.
This practical session will expain how sticky content has been used at The University of Northampton to enhance student engagement with Blackboard VLE's. You will learn how to create professional course-level site banners, magazine style content and visually appealing reading lists that link directly to online libraries and booksellers.
Furthermore, we will share the lessons we have learned when disseminating this training to the student-facing teaching staff.
