BBLearn and One45 within CoM UGME Relationship problems• Chaos resulted from overlaps in these 2 systems:

• Multiple sources for schedules, multiple communication channels• Multiple sign-in processes• Email overload

• Dean said “fix it”• MEdICS: Targeted content in PAWS,

subscribable curriculum schedules, mobile device access, single sign-on between One45 and BBLearn

• Establishment of One45 as single, authoritative source for UGME curriculum and content with links to external content like BBLearn

www.usask.ca

BBLearn and One45 within CoM UGME Conclusions• BBLearn and One45 are different. But there are overlaps.• BBLearn and One45 compliment each other.• BBLearn is a component within the One45 curric. system.• BBLearn should only be used for its intended purpose:

• Advanced teaching materials delivery• Assignments• Quizzes / Exams• Student group collaboration• Marks• Announcements and emails

www.usask.ca

BBLearn and One45 within CoM UGME Conclusions (cont.)• One45 should only be used for its intended purpose:

• Designing, managing, planning, and delivering curriculum• Simple content delivery (eg. handouts), scheduling, evaluations &

assessments, marks, email communications to students

• Rule to live by:• Use One45 for all CoM UGME curriculum management

and course delivery. If its course delivery functionality is lacking for your needs, use BBLearn and link to it in One45.
