ePortfolios will be unavailable beginning 11pm August 23 until 2am on August 24


Please take note of this maintenance window and plan accordingly.
 
 
Spring Course IPs
 
Moodle class sites from Spring 2020 are visible to students until September 8.  If you have students with IPs from Spring who will need access to Spring courses after September 8 to complete work for an IP - send an email to aide@bhcc.edu - subject: Spring 2020 IP Request. 

In your email, please include the name of the student, their student ID number or BHCC email address and the course information (e.g., BIO 108-01). The course will be available to the student until the beginning of Spring 2021, or until you contact AIDE again to let us know that the student is complete and you are ready to have the course closed for that student. 
 
Summer Course IPs
Moodle class sites from Summer 2020 are visible to students until September 22.  If you have students with IPs from Summer who will need access to those courses after September 22 to complete work for an IP - send an email to aide@bhcc.edu - subject: Summer 2020 IP Request. 

In your email, please include the name of the student, their student ID number or BHCC email address and the course information (e.g., BIO 108-01). The course will be available to the student until the beginning of Summer 2021, or until you contact AIDE again to let us know that the student is complete and you are ready to have the course closed for that student. 

Why not simply add an IP student to an upcoming Moodle section of the same course? Maintaining precise and accurate academic records is complex. Students are receiving a grade for work based on your course policies, procedures and practices in a specific semester of enrollment. Should you or the student need to access proof of completion, or make inquiries regarding their course, and especially if you were unavailable to document and provide confirmation of the specific semester/section/items that the student completed in an alternate section, there can be significant implications for the student. 

This is why it is essential to carefully consider all possible options and err towards extending access to the original Moodle course whenever possible.
