Tegrity and BB Collaborate to be replaced by YuJa, Summer 2017

More Information on Trainings, Recordings, Support, and Transitions

After reviewing lecture capture tools, the Faculty Development Center and faculty representatives from each college have selected YuJa Active Learning Platform to replace Tegrity. Due to its ease of use, features available, and pricing package, YuJa will be used to replace not only Tegrity, but also the web conferencing service provided by Blackboard Collaborate. The transition will occur in May and June. Instructors wishing to use lecture capture or web conferencing during the summer are strongly encouraged to use YuJa due to the cut-off date for Tegrity and Collaborate, which will be June 15. More information, including instructions and training information can be found in our Service Catalog article.
