Hi all,
I'm having the same problems. I just deleted the file I uploaded
yesterday but LON-CAPA still says that I've exceeded the capacity by
333%. I have no idea what to do at this point.
Suggestions?

Hi Susan. I’ve recorded several lectures using zoom. Can you advise me
as to how to upload them onto LON CAPA? I’ve done so by uploading them
as zip files but then I have run out of disk space. I’m doing
something wrong. Please help. Angela

Hi all,
We officially went online on Wednesday (announced at 10 am to go
online at noon on the same day). Luckily because of my age and
underlying pulmonary issues, I had already gotten permission to go
online the previous Monday. That gave me time to think about how to
accomplish the switch and notify students before they returned to
campus after Spring Break.
The biggest changes for me are:
* giving lectures via Zoom, which I record and then post on LON-CAPA
(works then for both those who can/wish to be online during class
time and those who can't/don't wish to)
* eliminating exams 2 and 3 and making the homework for the second
half of the course worth 20% of their grade
* reducing my expectations on the project and eliminating the
in-person presentations during the final exam and increasing the
worth of the project
* doing participation exercises online through LON-CAPA, but giving
them more time and making it (at least initially) more supportive
than anything else. (This weekend's question was what I can do as
your instructor or as associate chair for UG studies to help you
in this challenging time).
* listing online videos of course-related academic seminars for the
extra credit assignment. (Colleagues on Twitter have been awesome
at providing me with links to videos). These replace the on-campus
seminars.
The students are shell-shocked, so my recommendation is be patient
with them, reduce your expectations - things will not be the same, and
just do what you can't. Don't worry that things will not be perfect.
Don't edit videos (it's a waste of your time).
And remember to take care of yourselves,
All the best,
Susan

Hi,
face-to-face teaching stopped on Friday at my University up until mid
of April. Since I use LON-CAPA to implement Just-in-Time-Teaching I
do not feel really challenged by the current situation. Business in
LON-CAPA will continue as usual. I will replace class time either
screencasts or Adobe Connect sessions. I discussed that on Friday in
one of my classes after the the message of university shutdown had
arrived. Also to my students my plan seems to be the most reasonable.

I’m guessing everyone is in the same boat to some degree or another.
Here at Ohio University we have suspended face-to-face classes through
the end of the semester and are scrambling to go fully remote.
The good thing is that for those of us already using LON-CAPA, the
transition
is a little easier, but I know that I personally have a bit of work
to pull together
extra resources to help support the students better.
I would be curious to hear how people are adapting and perhaps using
LON-CAPA
in ways they have not before. As well, this would be a great venue
for people
who have questions about ways to stretch their use of the system.
I know on our end we are scrambling to decide how we will use LON-CAPA
for examination with the knowledge that their may need to be some
give and take on proctoring in the immediate future.
How goes it for everyone else?
