Blackboard ImplementationSt. Amant High School Blackboard Learn is a management system that : • teachers can use to deliver course content • communicate with students and parents • enable student interaction with teachers and students • provide online assignments and assessments
My Blackboard Blackboard Learn is the premier platform for delivering learning content, engaging learners, and measuring their performance. The goal is to increase the impact of education by transforming the experience.
Course Content The Content of a course is made up of the folders, files, text, images, media, links, tests, and interactive tools assembled and organized by Class Builders and Teachers.
Learning Modules LearningModules are used to package and present content and allow teachers to organize related class materials in a Table of Contents. All types of content, such as items, assignments, and tests can be included in a LearningModule. LearningModules enable students to follow a structured path for progressing through content.
Grade Center The Blackboard Learn Grade Center is a dynamic and interactive tool. The Grade Center can record data, monitor student progress, communicate information to students, parents, administrators, and other stakeholders. It is also a valuable tool to assist in making informed decisions to take action to promote student and institutional progress.
Performance Dashboard The Performance Dashboard aggregates notifications for newly posted content, items ready for grading, late submissions, and customized alerts about course activities.
Notification Dashboard The NotificationsDashboard displays notifications that have links to class items or class information that have been changed, submitted, created, or that have impending due dates. This allows the user to view all of the pertinent, changed information from a class.
Early Warning System The Early Warning System creates rules that warn users of poor performance based on attendance or Grade Center items.
Adaptive Release AdaptiveRelease controls the release of content to users based on a set of rules created by the teacher. The rules may be related to availability, date and time, individual users, group membership, scores or attempts on any Grade Center item, calculated columns in Grade Center, or review status of an item in the Class.
Plagiarism Prevention SafeAssign teaches students to properly cite their resources as their assignments are submitted and verified against online databases and any materials in the Blackboard community’s global database.
