Blackboard What Is New – 9.1 Q2 2019

Blackboard continues their commitment and investment in the Learn Original Experience (Learn 9.1). The following release highlights were delivered in the Learn 9.1 Q4 2018 and Q2 2019 releases.

Standards and Interoperability

As a leader in openness, Blackboard continues to invest in expanding support for standards and interoperability within Learn to give institutions increasing options for expanding and defining their unique EdTech platforms.

Quality and Maintenance

Blackboard continues to make changes to technologies and processes to further improve quality.

Release Highlights

Blackboard Learn Cumulative Updates are focused specifically on changes where a tool or feature is not functioning as designed (software bugs), for performance, or to harden security. New functionality is not introduced as part of a Cumulative Update.

Deprecated Items

MSIE 11 will no longer be supported by JHU. Microsoft ended active development for Internet Explorer in January 2016. Over time, we have found more features of Learn no longer work properly with IE11 and Blackboard will not resolve issues specific to IE11. We recommend an alternate browser, e.g. Chrome, Edge, Firefox.

JHU Blackboard Self Service Support facilitates troubleshooting of several key user issues which can detract from the Blackboard experience at JHU.
