Benefits of Blackboard Course Supplements
Enhancing your course with a Blackboard course supplement combines
the elements of traditional classroom-based instruction with the
tools of online distance delivery. The combination produces several
benefits for students and instructors:
- Blackboard provides tools to facilitate communication outside
of scheduled class time and office hours, enhancing student-student
and faculty-student communication.
Supports different learning styles and methods. Visual, multimedia
interactive content can easily be added to your courses.
- Online course materials are available 24 hours a day, seven
days a week, ensuring that students always have access to assignments
and other handouts. Students have time for reflection when participating
in online discussions and can participate at a time and place
that meets their needs.
- Online quizzes can be used for student pre-tests and practice.
- Managing and administering the course is simplified with an
online gradebook and tools for email management.
