UC Davis has not taken any payroll actions, as we are awaiting guidance from UCOP. Note that we have continued to offer central support to the colleges if an instructor needs to hire additional help to complete their grading. The deadline for grade submission was Monday, February 13. The remaining 0.9% is a combination of missing grades and placeholder grades of NG, or no grade. See and download all the slides in Chancellor May’s presentation.Īs of January 30, instructors of record had submitted 99.1% of undergraduate grades, or 132,235 grades.Blackboard remains the system for sharing lecture materials with students.Staff who have attempted to use class notebooks tell us the synchronization is not as quick as they would like it to be.They were originally designed for schools, where class sizes are under 50. These notebooks may not be viable for very large units with many students.Note: The quiz feature is not as powerful as those available in Blackboard, Questionmark and H5P. We recommend removing or renaming quizzes, handouts and homework when setting up the notebook unless you intend to use them. Use the collaborative space to share ideas (works best asynchronously).As a mechanism for students to keep notes on labs, fieldwork or similar so that they can share them with you.Ask your students to reflect on their learning so that you or a colleague can give support and feedback.

Asking students to introduce themselves to you so that you can learn something about them (without them having to share with the wider class).

There are some caveats to using these notebooks (see below) but use-cases include:

There is also a teacher-only space and a collaborative space. Every student has their own page to make notes that the teacher can see. Each Teams space will come with a Class Notebook.
