GWU's website has instructions on creating acourse on Blackboard: https://blackboard.gwu.edu/webapps/portal/frameset.jspOther schools, such as U of Texas, offer more detailed tutorials on Blackboard http://www.utexas.edu/academic/blackboard/tutorials/ Princeton even has animated tuotorials: http://www.princeton.edu/as/bb_animated_tutor.shtml If you are working in a school where Blackboard is available, there should also be training available. Ask the HR dept. for it. Individual teachers who are not associated with a school that has a Blackboard account are better off setting up their own website and placing the documents and applications they want to use there. One of the drawbacks of Blackboard is that once the class is over, the class site is no longer available except to the professor. Another problem is that others cannot access your site if they are not registered with the school. So if you want to show someone the neat things you've created and uploaded you'd have to upload it to another site if that person is not a student who can use the Blackboard account. |
