Hopefully it was a very productive summer for all. As we turn our attention to Fall 2013, it is time for faculty to request Blackboard courses and for students to get back up to speed on how to turn in assignments, contribute to discussion groups, take online assessments, and retrieve content from Blackboard.

Faculty should take a look at this post on how to request your Blackboard course. If you have any questions or concerns, please send an email to blackboard@richmond.edu or call 287-6860.

For students (or anyone needing a refresher), check out the Atomic Learning videos about the tools in Blackboard. You can access Atomic Learning within Blackboard on the “My Blackboard” page or by visiting http://is.richmond.edu/training/tutorials.html.
