What do you like best about Blackboard?

You can clearly see where the Announcements, Syllabus, Assignments, and any other miscellaneous categories that the Professor created. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Blackboard?

It is difficult to navigate what is put where. This is due to BlackBoard's style as well as the professor's personal design of their BlackBoard content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Blackboard:

To have a more streamlined process that every professor and student must adapt to. It is difficult to find certain things due to the professor's liking; however, this problem may be fixed by giving fewer options to the professor. This way, things cannot be "hidden" from the student. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Blackboard solving and how is that benefiting you?

Although it is difficult to navigate at times, it is definitely a way to organize a student's classes. BlackBoard will always notify and email me the moment a professor uploads content and grades. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
