Illinois Compass points learning to one place online - Ivan Silverberg, Daily Illini

Say goodbye to the confusing days of Campus Gradebook, WebCT Campus Edition, Blackboard, WebBoard and Mallard. Illinois Compass, a new online learning system, will replace the host of classroom Web services in 2004. Students and faculty will be able to turn to one service for quizzing, grades, paperwork, announcements, assignments and discussion. Campus Information Technologies and Educational Services officials plan to introduce Illinois Compass this spring with complete release in fall 2004.... "This will be an incredible boon, especially during the first two weeks of the semester when students switch courses frequently," said Lanny Arvan, assistant chief information officer for Educational Technologies.
