Creating and Customizing Your Blackboard Class
I think I’ll put some stuff online!
I know that Blackboard is a storage place.
I’ll park my syllabus out there for the students.
And oh, my PowerPoints
…and a few other things
so they can print
I’ll create a course and put my stuff in the right place. Here?
Why live with Blackboard’s Default Buttons?
Why not provide meaningful links to content areas or tools? Unit 1 Readings Assignments Quiz
Instead of seeing
Why not change your class from this:
To something like this:
or this?
Create Logical Navigation and Organization
Consider opportunities for communication
And collaboration
Whatever you choose… ,[object Object]
