This article feels a bit like advertorial content, though it might not be. In any case, it introduces Microsoft's Viva Engage (the answer to the question, "Whatever became of Yammer?"). The article is sort of a case study where a class replaces Learn Ultra, a Blackboard product, with the Microsoft replacement. "Viva Engage," writes Rose Day, "offered a social-media-style interface better suited to student-led discussion. It allowed us to create a dedicated, cross-programme space that felt separate from academic content but still part of the university ecosystem."
