What is Blackboard Learn?

Blackboard Learn includes numerous administrator privileges that can be applied to different roles depending on your institution's needs. For your convenience, Blackboard has developed a comprehensive Administrator Privilege Descriptions spreadsheet that organizes these privileges and provides descriptions for them.

What are the roles in Blackboard?

Roles determine what a user can and can't do within Blackboard Learn. Administrators use roles to group privileges into sets that can be assigned to user accounts. Every user associated with a role has all of the privileges included in the role.

What are permissions?

After content is added to the Content Collection, permissions must be granted to make the content accessible to users and groups of users. Permissions allow users to perform certain actions on items in the Content Collection, that range from read-only access, to editing, managing and removing content.

Default permissions

Some users have default permissions to specific folders. In this case, various permissions are automatically granted to specific folders.

Grant and receive permissions

Any user with Read and Manage permission on a file or folder may grant permissions to other users and user lists.

Organize folders

Users can organize folders in a way that allows them to manage permissions by folder, rather than by file. For example, create a folder that contains all files used in a group project. Then, the entire folder may be shared with the group members, rather than trying to manage permissions on separate items stored in different folders.

Sharing folders

When users add folders and files to the Content Collection, they need to keep in mind which users and user lists the content will be shared with. Try to create folders for all items that are to be shared with the same users. When items shared with the same users are spread out among different folders, it may become difficult to manage.

Sharing files

Files are available automatically to the user that added the file but must be shared if other users are to view the item.

Overwrite option on folders

When users add or edit permissions on a parent folder, they have the option to force all files and subfolders to inherit these permissions. For example, if the read and write permissions are added to the folder, and an item within the folder has read, write, and remove permissions, remove permissions are removed from the file.

Removing a TA (or Changing a Role)

To remove someone previously added with the above process, follow the steps 1-3 to get to the Blackboard Additions screen. Enter the student’s NetID, but choose Remove BB Access granted here.

Definitions of the Available Roles

A Teaching Assistant (TA) has the same access to all areas of a course as the instructor. If you don’t want the TA to have access to the Bb grade center, consider the course builder role, instead. Note: If a TA has authorization and access to enter grades into Banner, then they will automatically have instructor access to the Blackboard course.
