[[File:pages_logo.png|thumb]][http://pages.upd.edu.ph '''Pages.UPD'''] ([http://pages.upd.edu.ph pages.upd.edu.ph]) is an easy-to-use platform for the creation and maintenance of online sites for UPD units and projects as well as for profiles of UPD faculty and researchers. It seeks to fill the gap between well-developed UPD websites and outdated (if not abandoned or non-existent) sites of certain UPD units, projects, faculty and researchers.

<br /><br />

Login requires UPD (Faculty) Webmail account.

Based on [http://openscholar.harvard.edu Openscholar], '''Pages.UPD''' features the following:
* instant, template-based publication of scholarly contents, with minimal-to-zero technical know-how required
* built-in content management system
* category tagging for added navigational ease
* built-in site analytics
* social media integration
* drag-and-drop layout

<br /><br />

----
=Terms of Use=
#The use of the '''Pages.UPD''' service shall be consistent with the University's [http://upd.edu.ph/aup/ Acceptable Use Policy].
#On '''Pages.UPD''', keep it academic or official. A less formal, more collaborative, community-oriented site like [[Main_Page|iskWiki]] may complement a '''Pages.UPD''' site.
#Allowed pages include profiles and information on UPD units or their affiliated offices, profiles of UPD faculty and researchers, UPD research or administrative projects.
#'''Pages.UPD''' sites are to be generated or maintained by persons with existing formal, institutional UPD affiliation, including faculty, administrative staff, and researchers.
#Information on '''Pages.UPD''' sites is instantly made public. It can be indexed, archived, or rendered persistent by non-UP entities like search engines and content aggregators. It is recommended that internal UP documents be properly created, processed, archived, maintained or shared via an '''internal''' document management system like '''[[UPDox]]''' or via a learning management system like '''[[Uvle|UVLe]]'''.
#Avoid duplication or having multiple, potentially conflicting or confusing sites. If a UPD unit already has a website, the same unit cannot create a '''Pages.UPD''' site and reproduce the same information. It may, however, use '''Pages.UPD''' for its projects or faculty or researchers' profiles that are not available on the original site. If a '''Pages.UPD''' site is meant to supersede an old site, the latter must be deleted or archived in a non-public facility.
#A site on '''[http://pages.upd.edu.ph Pages.UPD]''' has to have contact information that includes an official UPD email address.

<br /><br />

=Troubleshooting Tips=
* '''Can't login.''' I'm UPD faculty but I cannot log in. <br />
''Make sure your UPD Webmail account has been tagged by UPCC as "faculty."''
<br />
* '''Where's my site?''' I just created a site, I logged out and logged back in but I could no longer see my site.
''If it was successfully created, go to pages.upd.edu.ph/<the_site_I_just_created> or pages.upd.edu.ph/?q=<the_site_I_just_created>''

==Big Blue Button==
BigBlueButton (BBB) is an open source web conferencing system for distance education. The goal of the project is to enable universities, colleges, and K12 to delivery a high-quality learning experience to remote students.

BigBlueButton supports real-time sharing of slides (including whiteboard), audio, video, chat, and desktops. It also record lectures for later playback, specifically the slides + audio + chat (see release notes).

The BigBlueButton project was started in 2007 by Blindside Networks. In addition our work on BigBlueButton core, we created this UVLe 2.x activity module so you can fully leverage BigBlueButton's capabilities from within your courses.

This module enables you to:

*Create multiple activity links to on-line sessions within a course
*Restrict students from joining a session until a teacher (moderator) joins the session
*Launch BigBlueButton in a separate window
*Create a custom welcome message that appears at the top of the chat window when joining the session
*Specify join open/close dates for the session that appears in the Moodle's calendar
*Record a session

==Adding BBB to your course==
* Click on "turn editing on" button.
* Click on "Add an activity or resource" link.
* Add activity pop-out will show, click on the BigBlueButtonBN activity
[[File:Bbb-1.PNG]]
* Supply required fields (*red-labeled input box).
** Tick on the "Open BigBlueButton in a new window" so BBB will not load on parent window.
** Tick on "Students must wait until a moderator joins" so session will not start until you or an assigned moderator logs in.
** Tick on "Record" to record the whole session or the first "Duration" hours.
[[File:Bbb-2.PNG]]
* Save and Return to course

==Conducting BBB Class==
* [http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ Flash Player plugin] is required to run BBB.
* Allow BBB to access Microphone and/or Camera of your computer.
[[File:Bbb-3.PNG]]
* You can set your screen layout that suits your class.
[[File:Bbb-4.png]]
* Manage who can speak or be seen on the webcam via the Users Panel.
[[File:Bbb-5.PNG]]
* Add a Slide presentation to your class. You can upload any file type (txt, doc, xls, ppt, msofficex). It will be automatically converted to slides. 100 pages is the limit for presentation files.
