48. Waverley Adult Literacy Program Inc. Learning by doing: Monday, 14 November 2011Blackboard Session I did enjoy todays Blackboard session. Congratulations to the e champions for keeping it together whilst some of the participants were having audio problems. The Pictionary was fun and I'm beginning to like the polling procedure. In the beginning I would have said why use Doodle when it would be just as easy to email. But after being shown through it today, yes I can see that it does more than a mere email.
