Student Tutorial for Using Blackboard

Blackboard is a Web-base software system that provides for the interactive delivery of an on-line distance learning experience.  Southeastern Louisiana University utilizes Blackboard as one of several methods for providing distance learning opportunities to its students.  Blackboard can be accessed from most computers with Internet access (see Minimum Hardware and Browser Settings for Blackboard for more information).

 

The following tutorial was developed to help students gain a basic understanding of how to use Blackboard, and is specifically developed for Southeastern 101 students.  However, any and all Southeastern students may find these basic instructions helpful when using Blackboard.  For ease of use, each of the imagesis clickable.  When you double click on an image, a larger version of that image will display in a new window, allowing for easier viewing.
