We are pleased to announce that we are upgrading the SLATE Desire2Learn environment from version 10.0 to 10.3. The upgrade includes numerous enhancements that will provide new conveniences in navigation and improvements to existing tools.
While the overall look and feel of the SLATE environment will remain essentially similar to what you’re used to, some of the areas with new features are:
Content, Quizzes, Dropbox, Discussions, ePortfolio and Design. Please find details in our new presentation - SLATE Upgrade
The update is scheduled to occur Thursday April 24, 2014 8:00am and is expected to take 8 to 10 hours. SLATE will be unavailable during the upgrade window.
This upgrade is required to allow us to adopt new innovations being developed by Desire2Learn. Upgrading between the winter and summer semesters allows us to minimize the impact on faculty and students.
We will be providing further information about the upgrade in upcoming news postings
