Talk:Managing Blackboard

From BbWiki

Your control panel is divided into six areas:

1. Content Areas: where menu items such as your syllabus, course documents, assignments, and external links appear. Note that you can add or change the content areas that appear on each of your course sites.

2. Course Tools: where you can adjust the functions used on your board.

3. Course Options: where you change the appearance and basic settings of your site, such as adding a banner or menu item or altering the language setting.

4. User Management: where you can add and drop students in your course. Note that this only will affect a student’s Blackboard access and not the actual registration status.

5. Assessment: where you can create online tests and surveys, see usage statistics for your site, and maintain an online gradebook.

6. Help: where you can find documentation and tutorials for Blackboard.
