Get Online. Get Ahead. Graduate.™
Online courses with MDC Online are created and copied via MDC Online’s Master Course process. A Blackboard course shell is automatically created for Enhanced and Blended courses through MDConnect integration.
Courses are systematically created 90 days before the start on the term. Students are populated in your Blackboard course two days prior to the first day of class (based on sessions).
Required actions for MDC Online courses before the start of the term:
Textbooks
Detailed information on managing your course during the semester, student engagement, Proctored Assessments, class rosters, grades and attendance can be found in the MDC Online Faculty Organization (Org) in Blackboard Learn (Learn). You will see a tab in the top right labeled Organizations. It is similar to Courses. You should see the MDC Online Faculty Org under your 'My Organizations'.
If you are teaching this term and do not see the Organizations tab next to the Courses tab in Learn, email online@mdc.edu and you will be added to the Org.
