Mobile Print

With UTEP Mobile Print, anyone can send their documents to UTEP lab printers straight from their mobile device. There are three different ways to use Mobile Print. The first is by going to the web site mobileprint.utep.edu and upload documents to be retrieved from any lab printer. The second way to use Mobile Print is to download the PrinterOn app to your phone. Search for the two UTEP printers, color and black & white, then upload from your phone and search for a black-and-white or color printer to upload your document to. The last option is to just email your documents to either wirelessbw@utep.edu or wirelesscolor@utep.edu . For more information on using UTEP Mobile Print, visit the info page below.

LockDown Browser

LockDown Browser is an internet browser that goes directly to UTEP's Blackboard and nowhere else. It allows students to take a test online while locking all other applications on the computer. Students can download LockDown Browser to their computer by going to the “Tools” section in Blackboard, outside of their course. We want to remind students to always check for updates before taking an exam. When you open LockDown, click on the “i” at the top of the browser, and then “Check for Update”. Students and faculty can use the link below for more information on LockDown Browser.

Zoom

Zoom is a tool faculty can use to have face-to-face classroom sessions online. Dr. Daniel Tillman, an Associate Professor in Educational Technology, uses Zoom to record his class sessions as well as short instructional videos for his class. With Zoom, after each session is recorded, it is automatically uploaded into UTEP's video repository, YuJa. Instructors can then embed and share videos with their students directly in a Blackboard course. Use the links below for more information on how Zoom can be used together with Yuja and Blackboard.
