  2. Geographic location Located in the North of Portugal, in the “province” of Minho, the University has two campi, one located in Braga and other in Guimarães, which are 20 kilometers apart. The Minho region has a population of over 1 million inhabitants and an extremely strong tradition of vibrant enterprise, essentially of small and medium-sized businesses. The University campus of Gualtar, in Braga, occupies a 45ha area, and the campus of Azurém, in Guimarães, is located in a 29ha area (ha=10.000 m2).

  3. Undergraduate and Postgraduate Degrees Almost all Schools are developing activities focused on promoting lifelong education among different professional groups (teachers, economists, lawyers, doctors) corresponding to their scientific domains. 39 Undergraduate courses (1st cycle degree), 13 Integrated Master Degrees (1st and 2nd Cycles integrated degrees) 150 Specialization or Master courses (2nd cycle degrees)

  4. BolognaatUMinho All graduate, postgraduate and doctoral programs are offered by the University according to the Bologna model since the year 2007/08. One objective of the University is to become a reference point in terms of the quality of its teaching and learning in every cycle of the Bologna model, which was introduced at UM in the year 2006/07. Measures were undertaken to help teachers and students to adapt to the new Bologna paradigm, and new learning methodologies - such as e-learning, active and project-led learning - were implemented ensuring a student-centered learning environment.

  5. Virtual Campus Project 2004

  6. Project e-U – 2004 The project, also called Virtual Campus Project, was developed on three fronts : Implementation of a safe Wi-Fi network; Implementation of a cross-e-learning tool; creation of training and support to develop internal skills for teachers in the production and publication of content; support of future users; Development and implementation of a set of electronic services for members of the academic community.

  7. The methods of teaching / learning must be reformed, giving greater emphasis to the student's work, introducing: Distance learning; Active learning; Learning based on problem-solving; Learning oriented to projects; More participation; More attractive to students; Centered on skills acquisition. Bologna declaration

  8. PilotProjects At this stage some schools experimented with various platforms, and such policy of diversity allowed us to obtain feedback on the features available in different Learning Management Systems. • Easy Education • TWT • Moodle • DMat

  9. Defining New strategy 2006

  10. Supportteams Technologies and Information Systems Office – GSI (devellopement, exploitation, and coordination of the Information Systems) directly dependent on the Rectory and in charge of the development and coordination of the Information Systems such as Blackboard and its integration with the Information Systems. Teaching Support Office – SAPIA (general services of computing support to teaching and learning): directly dependent on the Rectory and supplies general services of computing support to the academic community, including a help desk for Blackboard users and training.

  11. Definition At this stage "e-Learning UM" is the use of web based tools to provide a vast set of information, didactical resources and administrative functions in the scope of the teach-learning process, essentially for support in the classroom.

  14. e-UM levels • e-UM(E) – e-Learning • e-UM(D) – Place Learning Objects on-line • e-UM(C) – Continuous use of at least one communication / assessment tool • e-UM(B) – Place static contents on-line - Library • e-UM(A) – Place " mandatory " contents on-line– Course Dossier

  15. Usability; Synchronous and asynchronous tools of communication; Modularity and customization; Development to the measure; Advanced Distributed Learning SCORM Compliance; Reliability; Redundancy and scalability; Integration with the Information Systems; Integration with the Service Directory and Authentication; Cost. Criteria for selecting our e-Learning platform

  16. Selection of the e-Learning platform All the criteria respected Best choice in comparison Brand credibility

  17. Implementation Analysis of various models of implementation of hardware possible for Blackboard. Implementation on Microsoft technology (2 months): Setting up the infrastructure of hardware support; Integration with the Information Systems, Human Resources and Academic Services; Integration with the new Service Directory and authentication; Adapting Blackboard image.

  18. Fitting Blackboard to UM

  19. Given the inexistence of the Portuguese Language pack in version 7.1 of the LMS, the translation has been carried out by a translator of the University of Minho. Translation of the Language pack – 2006

  20. Course dossier – 2007

  21. Other Building Blocks – 2007

  22. Teachers support training On-demand training and Help Desk

  23. Continuous improvement • Monitoring (surveys and evaluation) • Training (new modules) • New deployments (building blocks) • Organization of events

  25. Teaching Support Office (Gabinete de Apoio ao Ensino ) is an Organic Unit of the UM directly dependent on the Rectory and supplies general services of computing support to teaching and learning.

  26. e-Learning platform Management of electronic services supporting the teaching/ learning process; Computer laboratories and printing services Maintenance and management of the infra-structure; Teachers Pedagogical Training Offers training in several domains, such as, pedagogies, evaluation, technologies…

  27. First steps: • UOEI – contact • State of the art • Training/support offer and contracts • Key users identification • Expectations – teachers, students and staff • Events
