To All Online Students,
We recently had some technical problems with the Proctored Exam Application. Anyone who completed an application on Tuesday, July 19th through Thursday, July 21st, we did not receive your request. The problem has since been fixed, so we would like to ask you to please submit another application for your proctored exam at your earliest convenience.

The summer 2011 end of course evaluations were set to open today, however, the link is not available at this time. We are still waiting for confirmation from the Provost Office of the releasing of the online evaluation on their end. They said it’ll be up later today. (The evaluations will be opened from Friday, July 22nd through Sunday, July 31st at midnight.)
Once the link becomes available, we will let you know.

Greetings,
The web conference tool we use at SOM will be upgraded from version 7.5 to version 8 after March 11. We encourage you to get familiar with this version, especially if you have courses with any web conferences scheduled during the rest of this semester. You can go to this Adobe Connect 8 Getting Started page to learn about this tool and check out the demos and guides. You can also view the updated web conference tool information on the SOM eLearning Getting Started Information page for Online Students.
If you have any questions, please email som-elearning@utdallas.edu.
Thank you.
