As you may already know, Collaborate is the new virtual classroom service offered by Information Services.
More details on Collaborate at: www.ed.ac.uk/is/collaborate . This service has been live since summer (via Moodle and Learn) and early November (via MyEd). We are striving to provide an up-to-date service.
Currently the University is running version 11. However version 12 was recently released which provides all the functionality of version 11 plus the ability for users to access a Collaborate session (as a participant) on an Apple Mobile device (iPhone 4+ and all versions of the iPad).
IS colleagues are currently carrying out testing however we now need assistance from students with the User Acceptance Testing (UAT) for Collaborate and MyEd.
We require users who will have access to an iPad (any version) and/or iPhone (version 4 +) for UAT. The testing process should take no longer than 1.5 hours and is scheduled for Wednesday 12th December. Test credentials and a test script will be provided (via email on the 12th). We will need all completed testing scripts, with feedback, by Thursday 13th December 1pm.
Could you please email Myles Blaney (myles.blaney@ed.ac.uk) if you have time to assist with testing? Can you also confirm whether you will be using an iPhone and/or iPad and which device generation you will be using? Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance, Fiona Littleton
