LC Virtual Office Hours (VOHs) for DLASs

The regional Virtual Learning Consultants (VLCs) host Virtual Office Hours (VOHs) most Wednesday mornings at 9:00. This is an informal opportunity for the DLAs to participate in mini-training demos, hot topic discussions, or simply to entertain questions or discussion in a Q&A open forum. Some weeks will feature agenda items while other weeks, the agenda will be driven by the participants.

On Wednesday, July 29, 9:00 AM, Connie Joyner and James "J" Bell will be your hosts. One agenda item will be the new features in the version 2.0 Registration System. The VOH sessions are presented virtually via the Blackboard DLA Spa. The VOH session can be accessed using four optional methods:

Option 1) Follow this string: DLA Spa > Virtual Office tab > Wimba Classroom > Enter Classroom (so long as the necessary downloads have been processed). A headset with mic is recommended so you can interact with vocal audio.

Option 2) Once in the classroom, there is a phone icon on the tool bar - when clicked, a phone number and pin number is displayed to dial into the session using a phone.

Option 3) All participants can use the text chat in the lower left section of the screen, and the participant emoticons for session "click responses."

Option 4) The dial-in phone number and pin ID can also be called for audio and talk only (no visual) if your participation is not convenient to participate via computer.

We look forward to your participating in this excellent weekly collaborative opportunity!
