WebCT Blackboard
  • Target, attract, retain, and cultivate students
  • Continually improve the learning experience
  • Maintain lifelong learning relationships with students
  • Leverage institutional resources as efficiently and effectively as possible

How can I use Blackboard?

You can use Blackboard to post notes from your classroom presentations, resources for your students or assignment instructions. Students can access this information at any time, and don't require an appointment or a phonecall when a course outline is lost. They can post questions to the discussion board which are often answered by fellow classmates.

You can manage your grading with the online gradebook provided and students can see their grades as soon as you have them ready.

In addition, Blackboard offers communication tools that allow your students to discuss topics or issues related to the course, pose questions and share solutions. Take a look at the other links under Blackboard in the lefthand column to see other information and support about Blackboard.
