GMercyU’s Learning Management System , Blackboard, is an online learning environment where students can access course materials, resources, website assignments, lesson plans and directions in a course shell arranged in such a way as to construct shared learning activities. Used for fully online learning and as a supplement to face-to-face instruction, Blackboard’s features include interactive components that are both synchronous and asynchronous. Online discussion boards promote group interactivity, connecting instructors, students and the outside world.
GMercyU’s premier web-conferencing service allows users to host online conferences, meetings and classes. With an Adobe Connect account, a web camera and a computer or laptop with internet connection, faculty members can conduct classes anywhere in the world. Guest lectures, keynote speakers, distance education students and entire external classes have the ability to connect, share resources and collaborate. Class sessions or lectures may also be pre-recorded and uploaded to Blackboard for anywhere, anytime access. To obtain login credentials for Adobe Connect access, please email [email protected].
As a learning community, our faculty are challenged to explore, incorporate, and become proficient in innovative, technology-enriched best practices for teaching and learning. The Academic Technology team at Gwynedd Mercy University strives to build and support the community by integrating teaching and learning technologies into the classroom. Faculty members are trained in and encouraged to use a variety of tools for both online and face-to-face instruction.
Institutional Technology Services (ITS), in cooperation with the Office of Student Accessibilities Services, is helping Gwynedd Mercy University to support ADA Compliance laws , including Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.0) and Section 508. An online, self-paced Accessibilities course has been made available to provide general information about digital compliance, and will serve as a training resource for faculty and staff as they consider designing and providing ADA-compliant course materials.
