What is Blackboard Learn?

Blackboard Learn is the primary learning management system at Boston University; it is used in on- and off-campus courses, certificate programs, and clerkships. Students can access course materials at any time and from any computer with an Internet connection.

How do students stay connected to instructors?

Interaction and communication – Students can stay connected with instructors and classmates through e-mail, discussion boards, and blogs. Instructors can connect their Blackboard site to Zoom or Microsoft Teams for video classes or office hours.

Sending Email Through Blackboard

Send Email allows users direct access to course participants and can also be accessed from the Tools box on the My Institution area.

How to participate in a Discussion Group

Now that many people have an instant messenger, a blog and email, people are sometimes unsure about good rules of conduct for academic discussion groups as compared to other forums. To help these students, and those who have never used a discussion group, we've brought together some suggestions for posting in Blackboard discussion groups.

Responding to Posts

It's called a discussion forum because people are actually supposed to discuss ideas! Clever, huh? That means it will only be useful if you respond to others, not just post your own messages. You will not get the best results or grades from this kind of communication if you don't react to your classmates.

How to Submit an Assignment

When you are working on assignments or tests that will be graded, first make sure that you are using Firefox as your web browser.

Blackboard

Blackboard is the courseware management system at the University of Maryland, Baltimore for web-enhanced and web-based courses.

Ultra Base Navigation provides a better way to navigate Blackboard Learn

What is the Ultra Base Navigation? It is a modern, intuitive navigation menu that lives outside of courses. It includes links to new pages such as the Activity Stream, that provides quick access to the most critical information consolidated from all your courses.

Supported Browsers
