Chromebook (Chrome browser; features requiring NPAPI plug-ins are not supported) ChromeOS is not supported on devices other than Chromebooks such as ChromeOS running on Windows. ChromiumOS and Chromebit are not supported. Blackboard strives to make all its products as accessible as possible.
WebRTC isn’t presently supported on these browsers, so the Create Recording feature will not work on these browsers.
