Course description

Course Overview

It's been very useful to see a general overview from both a student's and member of staff's level of access, and to have the chance to play around with it ourselves during the course."

This short session provides a 'hands-on' introduction to the features of Blackboard - the University's virtual learning environment (VLE). It provides a basis for using Blackboard to support a range of academic and administrative functions and will provide you with the background you need to begin working with the VLE.
