As a reminder, LLCC will not be renewing the college’s SoftChalk license after the current contract expires. The deadline to export and save any content currently stored in your SoftChalk Cloud accounts is Thursday, Aug. 15, 2024. Content that is not exported by the end of the license expiration will be lost.
Keep in mind:
LLCC has now licensed new content authoring software called H5P, which offers more design flexibility and a richer feature set than SoftChalk. H5P can be used to create a wider variety of interactive content types, including quizzes, games, and simulations. H5P content is designed to be accessible to all users, which is especially important for students with disabilities. H5P is also mobile-friendly, so students can access H5P on almost any type of device. H5P is also open source and has a large and active community of users who contribute to its development and who share different kinds of content with one another.
Please note:
If you have any additional questions, contact Becky Parton, dean of LLCC Academic Innovation and eLearning, at 217-786-2351.

Phishing attacks, especially those masquerading as communications from higher-ups in your organization, can be quite sophisticated and convincing. Here are some steps you can take to protect yourself and mitigate the risk:
By staying vigilant and following these steps, you can significantly reduce the risk of falling victim to phishing attacks. Remember, cybercriminals rely on exploiting human trust and errors, so being cautious and informed is your best defense.
