Getting Started In myCourses
- Location: Claire T. Carney Library, Room 225

- Contact: CITS Instructional Development
- Description: This face-to-face workshop provides a hands-on introduction to the teaching and learning features of (new myCourses)Blackboard Learn.

As a student, you will learn how to access and navigate through tools and content. Next, you will learn about the roles an instructor plays in the online environment and identify key attributes for success. From there, you will learn how to set up the Course Menu, your students' access point to tools and content, and how to create Content Areas that contain materials, tools, and resources. You will have the opportunity to add a course structure to your development course, allowing you to learn about Blackboard Learn tools and features as you experience them in the course environment. Finally, you will become familiar with some common start-up tasks, such as creating announcements, adding a syllabus, adding calendar entries, and setting up discussion forums.
