4Help is Your First Stop for Support
4Help and answers.vt.edu increased their support by being the primary contact for all OCS-related support questions at Virginia Tech.  This includes the all services covered by Online Course Systems -- Blackboard, Scholar, ePortfolio, CourseEval, DyKnow, Courseware, ElementK, or iTunesU. We are asking all faculty, students, and staff with questions about these services to direct their questions through 4Help.  They can be accessed at 231-HELP (231-4357) or http://www.4help.vt.edu; Online Course Systems continues to work with 4Help and answers.vt.edu to ensure consistent, quality support for the educational technologies we support. 

Course Evaluation Support

Learning Technologies is introducing a pilot phase of Course Evaluation, a web-based system to facilitate online, confidential course evaluations. This system will allow faculty to use the current questions (SPOT form), and to easily add additional questions tailored to their particular course. The system is designed for student anonymity and contains safeguards for confidentiality and authentication of responses.
