Faculty: Jump Start to Blackboard this Summer!


Did you know that more than 500 of your colleagues have already jumped onto Blackboard and are taking advantage of all that it has to offer?   If you are not yet certified to use Blackboard at MCC, we hope we can encourage you to join your colleagues and “Jump Start” to Blackboard!  You can read more about the Blackboard Certification <https://www.monroecc.edu/depts/distlearn/information-for-faculty/blackboard-learn-certification/>  process and register for a session date, or you can take advantage of (and register for) our fully online Level 1 certification course and start to use Blackboard to supplement your face-to-face courses.

Top 5 Reasons To Start Using Blackboard:

*        Easy Access for students to all of your course information and course content 24/7 (eliminate distribution of tons of paper to the class only to have them misplace the paper)

*        Keep students posted as to their grades during the entire semester in a confidential manner (eliminate constant questions regarding “How am I doing”)

*        Incorporate web-based content in a flash using Web Links

*        Attach your PowerPoint presentations in one central location

*        Centralized Communication to your class roster through Announcements (reduce the number of individual emails you send).  Post an announcement and deliver an email with one click of a button.
