July 2016 - Peru State College

Peru State College Distance Education & Online Services

 Summer course grades are due Monday, August 1st at noon.

When appropriate, it is an institutional expectation that instructors submit student papers into the College's SafeAssign database. The process has never been easier; SafeAssign is integrated with your existing Blackboard assignments. To add automatic plagiarism checking into an assignment, you simply need to check a box:

 

Go to your assignment

 

Choose 'Edit' from the drop down



Select the "Check submissions for plagiarism using SafeAssign" box



Then, click 'Submit'

 We are now taking requests for Fall 2016 Blackboard course shells. Please email your requests to Emily Schulte at your earliest convenience. Please be sure to include the following information in your request: course name(s), section(s), specify if you’re wanting a blank shell copied or one previously taught by you or another instructor.

 Kevin, Sherry & Emily will be out of the office attending a Blackboard Conference the week of July 11th through 15th. They will be checking their email periodically; however, if you need to speak with someone right away, please contact Samantha Jensen at [email protected] or call 1-888-258-5558.

In the editing options, Click on 'Submission Details'

More SafeAssign information can be found here.

Due to low enrollment/limited availability of faculty over the summer, we will be postponing the conference sessions for current faculty to Friday, September 9th. More details will be sent out at a later date.
