December 2024 QEP Update

Monthly Summary

The month of December was shorter, due to the winter break and team members taking time off. Advanced PowerPoint, the newest microcredential to be developed, was tested and refined. Work continued in creating a template for how all the microcredentials would look when migrated over to BlackBoard Ultra (by Fall 2025).

Highlights

Outreach

  • December 3rd, Meeting with Nonprofit Austin to sign MOU and begin partnership. 
  • December 6th, Blackboard Ultra training for the DFI team 

Microcredentials 

  • Finished development of the Advanced PowerPoint microcredential and loaded it into the LMS.
  • Ann Kennedy and Raquel Racusin  took the new Advanced PowerPoint microcredential as students to look for potential areas that needed refining.
  • Kimberly and Nancy started recreating Problem Solving with AI microcredential in the new Blackboard Ultra shell to see what changes would be required for the QEP microcredentials when they move over to Blackboard Ultra by Fall 2025. DFI may be able to use ACC Instructional Designers to assist with the migration, once we figure out all the changes.

Data

  • No new data to report for this month.
