If you’re a Saint Leo University faculty or staff member who uses Blackboard Collaborate Ultra web conferencing, you should check out what’s new in the February (Collaborate 18.2) Release!

What’s New?
In the Collaborate 18.2 release, the developer updates were focused on academic effectiveness and learner engagement, with four new features:

  • Moderators can distribute anonymous phone-only, dial-in instructions;
  • Moderators can edit recording names;
  • All users will experience bandwidth improvements (better quality) when viewing Application Sharing; and,
  • All users can now access Settings, Feedback & Status from their avatar in the tools area.

How Can I Use These New Features?
