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.
