About the Collaborate Pilot
The Collaborate pilot (August, 2011 - June 2012).
Holy Names University piloted an evaluation of Collaborate, Blackboard's interactive, recordable, web-based online learning product. The pilot is being facilitated by the Cushing Library.
During the pilot period, faculty, staff, and students evaluated Collaborate for its congruence with university goals, its compatibility with HNU's operating environment, and its requirements for instructional design and IT support.
Note: until August, 2011, Collaborate was called Elluminate.
