On our website we have published online courses that we have prepared thanks to the support of the National Recovery Plan. Firstly, the How to e-learning course, which will take you through the basics of what e-learning involves and the opportunities it offers. In fact, some e-learning methods are simpler than they may first appear!
Humanities wide open on a new platform
We have now moved our micro-courses to the OpenMoodle platform, which offers many interesting features and a more technically stable background. You can find these micro-courses and the How to e-learning course directly on the NPO website.

As a reminder, OneDrive storage capacity will soon be reduced to 100GB. For this reason, it is necessary to free up capacity in the storage. Instead of the original deadline in July, a deadline of September 15, 2024 was arranged, so you have more time for any backups. Nevertheless, this date is fastly approaching. If you are not sure how to do it, you can watch the recording of the workshop where we discussed the most important steps.

Renovation of classrooms in building B2 and their adaptation for hybrid teaching
Classrooms B22 and B23 have been in use for hybrid teaching for quite some time - we wanted to test the used technology and whether it would serve its purpose well. In the end, the classrooms proved their worth, and we are planning to renovate a number of other classrooms in the B2 building this summer, which will also be adapted for hybrid teaching. Classroom A21 will also be refurbished.

On the Digital Humanities website you can find an interview with doc. Jana Horáková about the Media Art Live Archive project, which explored the potential of using machine learning and deep neural networks in the analysis of audiovisual works. The main output of the project is the Vasulka Live Archive website.

Starting 20 May 2024, MU Faculty of Arts teachers can send their project proposals to the scholarship programme. The only condition is that the teaching must include the use of technology in teaching.

In the last month we have announced several times the upcoming shutdown of Google Analytics 3. If you've used this older generation of the popular analytics tool in the past, you'll know that the data mentioned in that version hasn't been measured in quite some time. However, there will now be a complete shutdown, which will also cause the deletion of older website traffic data. If you have any data in this online tool that you will need in the future, be sure to export it. See the article on the site to learn more.

History of CIT: Servers 1994-1995
It's been 30 years since we experimented with different server systems. Back then we tried NeXT step, Windows NT or BSD Unix. However, all systems eventually faded into oblivion and Linux, which was a new OS at the time, proved to be the most successful. In May 1995, we upgraded the memory to a full 16 MB and later came the upgrade to 32 MB. Another interesting fact is the capacity of the disks we bought at that time, which were 9 GB and 1 GB. This would be very insufficient today.
