Dear UHV Student,

The UHV Faculty Awards Committee requests your assistance in identifying the annual Teaching Excellence Award winner for 2018. The Teaching Excellence Award is given to one UHV faculty member annually in recognition of excellent teaching. Only students may nominate a faculty member for this prestigious award, so your input is critical to the process. Nominating a professor for this award is a meaningful way to recognize someone whose teaching has made a difference in your life.

You may nominate only ONE of your professors for this honor. Multiple nominations submitted by the same student will not be accepted. You will also be asked to provide your personal information (name, address, phone number and email address) on the nomination form, as anonymous nominations will not be accepted.

Please select your nominee from the provided list of eligible faculty from the drop down menu on the link below. Only full-time faculty, who have taught six consecutive semesters, are eligible to be nominated. Administrators, recent award recipients, visiting faculty and adjunct/part-time faculty are not eligible and do not appear in the provided list.

Complete your nomination form here:

The deadline for the nomination process is 11:59 PM on Sunday, April 7, 2018. Please help our committee recognize faculty excellence in teaching for the UHV community. Thank you for your cooperation.

Thank you,

2018 Faculty Awards Committee

The TurnItIn vendor will be performing system maintenance on the TurnItIn service Saturday, March 17, 2018, from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. During that time, the TurnItIn service will be unavailable from the TurnItIn website and within the UHV Blackboard system. TurnItIn service should be restored and available again after 4:00 p.m. on Saturday, March 17, 2018.

Update. TurnItIn Support reports that their engineers have resolved the slow response time and system degradation issue. The TurnItIn integration should be working normally now in the UHV Blackboard system and no UHV Blackboard users should be experiencing slow performance issues. We apologize for any inconvenience. 

TurnItIn Support reports TurnItIn users are experiencing slow service response times. UHV faculty/adjuncts creating TurnItIn assignments and students submitting TurnItIn assignments may encounter performance issues (slow response times to requests). If you experience issues using the TurnItIn integration with Blackboard, it’s a known issue by TurnItIn and they are working to resolve it. We currently have no estimated time of repair for the issue. You can check this website later for additional updates. 

Starting 11:00 p.m., Friday, January 26, 2018, through 9:00 a.m., Saturday, January 27, 2018, the UHV Blackboard system will be unavailable to all users.

Please visit this website for updates and other important information.

The UH Main Campus continues to work with Blackboard Support to resolve an issue with the Inline Grading feature in the Blackboard system. Currently faculty and students are experiencing an issue with the Inline Grading feature in Blackboard where assignment submissions do not preview in the Inline Grading Document Viewer area and only a Download option appears for the instructor or student to download the assignment file submission. Students are unable to see a preview of their assignment submission and faculty are unable to mark up or add notes on a student's assignment submission for the student to later review. No estimated time of resolution has been established but Blackboard Support hopes to have the issue resolved soon. Additional updates will be made available on this website, and we apologize for any inconvenience. 

Both the UHV campus in Victoria and the UHV Katy campus will resume normal operations on Thursday, January 18, 2018. Additional updates will be provided on the UHV website.
