Blackboard Course Management System
Dickinson employs the Blackboard Course Management System to provide online course materials and support. Any faculty member may request to have a Blackboard course site created for any course that they are teaching. LIS staff will help faculty to set up their Blackboard course site, create and insert materials into the course, and provide insights into the best pedagogical uses of Blackboard. Students can find help on how to access their Blackboard course sites and how to use the Blackboard tools.
