I like that the platform effectively organizes and manages virtual learning. It is really easy to categorize files, and the testing tools it offers are unique and helpful to have.
Using blackboard makes me so frustrated I hate when I have to use it every day. I do not recommend this software to anyone.
Blackboard has all the necessary tools to create a great and effective online learning environment. There are so many LTI tools you can integrate into Blackboard to be successful.
Whole passages of feedback will suddenly disappear if you move the mouse into the wrong area or scroll a bit while you are typing comments on the essay.
I like that it allows for the creation of rubrics, as all programs of this sort do. Really can't seen anything about this that is better or even as good as other programs.
It can be hard to find certain things and often tabs are hidden withing other tabs. This an also be frustrating to students when trying to locate content.
I like that it organizes courses in a very neat way, the website is easy to navigate and looks great visually. The calendar is very helpful.
I'm paying for the courses because institutions are supposed to pay for the use of the platform. But it happens frequently that the platform is down.
As an administrator, the system is easy to use, the staff will design the product to deliver exactly what you want and the quality of the product is superb.
A few of the reports have to be emailed so at times it's annoying to wait for the file to arrive via email rather than direct download from the site.
We have used BlueSky eLEARN since January 2016 and we only have positive things to say about the product and the customer service is OUTSTANDING.
It is limited with the number of toggles tied to one account.
Still a great deal of work to do and some things already on our wish list but the willingness to answer our questions and meet our needs has been great.
Sometimes the releases affect our course design or user experience and we need to shift gears very quickly which hasn't always been ideal.
Another great feature is allowing certificates and surveys when the course is completed. My most favorite is the ease of use for our members since the program is integrated with our website.
Crystal: Hi. My name is Crystal. I'm an animal control officer and I give Blackboard Learn a four out of five rating. For more reviews like this, click below. The problems that I solve, I use Blackboard Learn for all of my online classes with my university. So, it really helps me incorporate that learning attribute with communication with my peers and my teachers, as well. What I like the most about Blackboard Learn is that it really makes it accessible and easy to take my online studies without having to have huge hoops of communication issues. I can speak directly with my teachers and my peers. What I like least about Blackboard Learn is that it does tend to have some technical issues. So, sometimes the platform will be down, and we won't be able to access our studies and our classes or submit work. And then, you can't communicate with the teacher unless you have their direct email. So, that is kind of complexing. And then you have to reach out to their 1-800 number. So, it tends to be a bit inconveniencing at times.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
