Laulima v21 Upgrade and Tips for Instruction Webinar Flyer

After a nice holiday break, we opened the semester with a webinar covering Laulima’s new features. Hosted by the UH Instructional Design Professional Learning Community (PLC), the Laulima v21 Upgrade and Tips for Instruction webinar sought to inform and inspire faculty and staff on Laulima’s latest updates. Aside from learning about features like dark mode, a new assignment submission option, and a new messaging feature in Gradebook, participants also had opportunities to deep-dive into the Lessons, Gradebook, and Rubrics tools with instructional designers. Turnout for the webinar was good, but if you missed it, you’ll find the webinar recording and a link to the presentation slides on the event page.
