WebCT Downtime

WebCT will not be available from 6pm – 10pm on Saturday 4th September to install several service packs. TurnitinUK is also being upgraded on the same day and also will not be available between 6pm Saturday 4th and 2am Sunday 5th.
The timing for the TurnitinUK upgrade is outside of the University’s control. The exact timing of the
WebCT upgrade may be subject to some change but I’ve been trying to synchronise the timings as much as possible.

Service packs do not introduce new features but rather are bugs fixes and installing these service packs will also improve WebCT’s browser support.

The Turnitin upgrade introduces new features for feedback, online marking and peer review.
