Blackboard Classic STAR Report Winter 2010-2011
Drexel professors are utilizing Blackboard Classic in their course sections and this activity spans many academic disciplines. IRT developed a "STAR Report" (recall the Morningstar Report rationale for evaluating mutual funds in a clear, understandable, manner). This STAR Report is based on metrics focused on engagement, content, features, and organization.
Metrics in each section indicate levels of:
Student log-ins
Student online time
Assessment elements
Discussion topics
Content files
Course complexity/design
NOTE: Other professors utilize other systems; this STAR Report focuses on Bb Classic users.
The following professors topped the report in their respective colleges or schools.
