For those who are unable to attend, you may contact us to set up a one-on-one consultation.

To follow up on our e-mail sent on May 21st, we are upgrading to Blackboard 8.0 on August 25, 2009.  This version of Blackboard contains several new features that we hope will appeal to faculty members.  We will be holding workshops demonstrating these new features, both online and in person.

All faculty should have access to our test server, currently running Blackboard 8.0: http://bbapdemo.ic.sunysb.edu
Use your NetID and password to log in.  Copies of your courses will appear.  We recommend using your Fall 2008 courses, as Spring 2009 courses were last updated in February.  Play around and send us your feedback!

As we work on updating our website with Blackboard 8.0-specific information (also scheduled to go live on August 25, 2009), you may download our print-friendly documentation.

As always, don’t hesitate to contact us with any questions or concerns.
