Rearrange modules on the homepage

After I log in, I'm taken to the Blackboard homepage where there is lots of university information organized into modules. However, some of the ways that modules are arranged make no sense to me, or put information that I don't need at the top of the screen.

Add relevant modules that I use often

One of my favorite ways that I customize my Blackboard homepage is by adding relevant modules that I use often. Many of my friends are often surprised to find out that they can get a notepad module for writing quick notes, or that there's a way to get updates on campus construction.

Collapse or remove modules

It's easy to get carried away with adding new modules and to forget the original goal of making Blackboard less cluttered and easier to see. Luckily, most modules can be collapsed or removed with no issues!

Configure MyTab

Instead of having a bunch of modules on one page, I prefer to use the MyTab page as a place for additional modules that I can customize further. For me, MyTab currently has a notepad, calculator, and research links so I can easily access information for my assignments.

Add custom URLs to course list

Within the Course List module, I can add up to 5 custom website links for accessing courses that are hosted on another website, or websites I visit often for my classes. For example, I have a link to my favorite online IDE so that I can easily open it in a new tab and work with code alongside the view of my course.

Display course menu in a new window

One of my professors loved to put a ton of information in the course menu, which I found somewhat difficult to read with large text. Instead of trying to magnify a relatively small amount of information on the page, I prefer to open the course menu in a new window, so that all of the information fits on the screen and is easier to magnify.

Add high contrast settings

People who use high contrast displays or inverted screens may benefit from adding high contrast settings that override the custom Blackboard color palettes.
