As we prepare to upgrade to Blackboard 9, we’ve been coming across some excellent training material, which will be posted here after it is evaluated. The first is the Blackboard On-Demand Learning Center, courtesy of Blackboard.

Understanding and Building Your Course includes videos and PDFs about building course content, importing a course, creating blank pages and tool links and more.

You will also learn how to use the Grade Center and create assessments (tests, surveys, pools) at Blackboard’s On-Demand Assessing Learners page, and can decide whether blogs, wikis, journals and/or discussion boards will enhance your course in the Communicating and Collaborating section.
