Blackboard update
Posted by Kristen Treglia on August 7, 2008
Tonight at midnight Fordham’s Blackboard Learning Management System will be upgraded to version 8.
What does this mean?
First of all, let me reassure you that everything you have previously uploaded to Blackboard will still be there on Monday morning! You may continue using Blackboard this afternoon and this evening, however, any work that you do not save before the 12am deadline will lost.
New features and Enhancements fall into the following catagories:
Grade Center
Self and Peer Assessment Building Block
Safe Assign
Blackboard Content System Enhancements
Scholar Building Block for Basic
For more information, check out a PDF of the Faculty Release Notes for Blackboard 8.0. It might also be a good idea to download and look over a copy of the QUICK source guide to version 8.
You may also contact us to set up a training session on blackboard.
