- BLACKBOARD COURSE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Overview
Blackboard, known at Valparaiso University as CourseVU, is an online course management system. Using Blackboard allows instructors to electronically post class materials which are then available to students via the internet.
Blackboard gives faculty the opportunity to make learning materials available to students 24-hours a day. After class is finished meeting students can participate in discussion boards, take online quizzes and tests or turn in assignments electronically by using Blackboard.
Accounts
Blackboard accounts are created when other technology accounts are created. The username and password for Blackboard is the same as other systems (email, DataVU, etc.). If you are having trouble logging into your account, contact the IT Help Desk.
Additional information for students can be found on the Student Information page and for faculty on the Facutly Information page.Access to Blackboard
