Hi I’m John Zornig from UQ. We have been edX partners since 2013 and have 50+ MOOCs and programs on edx.org and many SPOCS on edge.edx.org. We have just started a new project to deploy our own Open edX instance, called LearnX.UQ, which will join our Blackboard LMS, known as Learn.UQ, as a key component of UQ’s virtual learning environment. Our initial focus for LearnX.UQ is blended learning for UQ students, but phase 2 will encompass our fully-online programs and alternative credentials. We are excited to be working with IBL Education as our technical partner for development and operations of LearnX.UQ. We look forward to contributing where we can to the future of Open edX.

Hi JZ,

I’m fascinated to learn more about this blended initiative. How is it progressing? Are there articles or write-ups that curious folks could read about it?

Thanks,
Ben
