Blackboard, the learning management system
To access Blackboard point your web browser to: https://bb.wpunj.edu/
Blackboard allows faculty to post documents, audio, and video, and collaborate online. Over three quarters of all sections offered in any given semester feature Blackboard hosted content.
Faculty can use Blackboard as an ajunct to traditional courses, in totally online courses, and in courses that feature a hybrid of online and traditional formats. Need to add a link to hybrid policy
All faculty should be enrolled in the Teaching with Blackboard course and will find it in their "Courses you are taking" module. The course is a good way to get started and can serve as a resource even for instructors who've worked with Blackboard for some time. This tool is especially handly for faculty who've used Blackboard at other institutions, as we may be using tools and employing standard practices which differ somewhat from what might be found elsewhere.
