We wanted to share with you support options and resources for continued teaching and learning through bCourses and other digital tools.  Please continue to refer to Berkeley News, WarnMe alerts and other official campus communications for the latest guidance.

Preparation for Smoke and Wildfire + PG&E Shutdown

Monday, October 28 through Friday, November 1 from 9am - 4pm, Digital Learning Services staff will be at the Academic Innovation Studio (Dwinelle 117, Floor D) to provide consultations for Instructors and GSIs on the use of bCourses, the creation and sharing of voice-over lectures, or other options for remote instruction. If possible, please book a consultation by using the DLS Consultation calendar (bit.ly/bCourses). In-person and virtual consultations are available. 

Note for Smoke and Wildfire Preparation: If the Air Quality Index goes above 150, consultations will be offered virtually using Zoom and not in person in the Academic Innovation Studio. Please refer to campus communications, Berkeley News and airnow.gov before coming to the Academic Innovation Studio. You will have a Zoom video conferencing link once you book your consultation.

Note for PG&E Shutdown: If official communication from campus is shared regarding a power shutdown, consultations will be offered virtually using Zoom and not in person in the Academic Innovation Studio. Please refer to campus communications and Berkeley News before coming to the Academic Innovation Studio. You will have a Zoom video conferencing link once you book your consultation.
