WHAT IS BLACKBOARD?
The Blackboard Learning and Community System is a course and organization management system that makes the creation, organization, and management of course content on the web relatively simple. Blackboard can be accessed through a web browser from any computer with Internet access. The principle features of Blackboard include a standardized course template, tools for uploading course content (including multimedia files), course discussion boards (threaded discussions), collaboration tools (chat rooms, wikis, blogs), e-mail, file sharing, grade book, tests and surveys, class rosters, course copy, and an interactive assignment tool.
Support is available Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. Limited support is available after hours and during weekends. No support is available on University holidays. For emergencies, call the Help Desk at 404.727.7777.
