Bb Vista STAR Report - Fall 2008-2009
Drexel professors are utilizing Blackboard Vista in their course sections and this activity spans many academic disciplines. IRT developed a "STAR Report" (recall the Morningstar Report rationale for evaluating mutual funds in a clear, understandable, manner). This STAR Report is based on metrics focused on engagement, content, features, and organization.
Metrics in each section indicate levels of:
- Student log-ins
- Student online time
- Assessment elements
- Discussion topics
- Content files
- Course complexity/design
NOTE: Other professors utilize other systems; this STAR Report focuses on Bb Vista users.
