The Online Support Desk recorded a record number of support requests in the Fall of 2020. The number of individual faculty and students increased 174% from the Fall of 2019 to the Fall of 2020. Increased numbers of hybrid courses have resulted in a large increase in Blackboard activity and therefore increased demand of Blackboard support requests.
