Blackboard Reviews & Product Details - Page 47

Blackboard is a genius platform for classroom management, content listing and assignment submissions. I constantly use this to communicate with my students and update them about my lectures. It is very easy to create announcements, and assignment submissions.

The file sharing and discussion board panel are amazing features which make group collaboration very easy. I also love how it separately lists out the organizations where you work on campus so that it does not collide with your actual classes. It is a very organized website.

Blackboard has a lot of bugs and does not work well at all on android or iOS platforms. The grading feature in it needs help as it does not integrate my grading criteria even when I try to set it up. Instead it ends up creating false grades which is very misleading for students. However, it still is an amazing tool for communication. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a student as well as a teaching assistant, I like blackboard in general. It is a best place for the professors and the students to communicate like the scores are uploaded, the grades are made visible as well as the assignments are made available to the students on blackboard. It can be even further changed to grant or deny permission according to their email addresses. The app version gives me notifications on the way when the assignment or any grades were posted on the blackboard for a particular subject. Interactive platform. Blackboard is great for providing a clear and organized view of all of the courses we take along with the work related training. It is easy to submit my work like assignments, projects, check deadlines as well on the course page and access course materials like pdfs, etc.It is also a great place to check our grades, progress and and stay updated with your progress in the course. It is definitely a required portal that every university must have for the students. It is good with IOS but the android version of the apps gives you lot of bugs or even gets frozen.

It doesn't support all types of files like .tar, .c, .gz etc. there are lot of issues with the app specially, when I access it through my phone as my screen is much smaller and options on the app seem to overlap. I also can't scroll through the menu options properly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the things I like best about Blackboard is that it is so widely used. That means that it's worth my while to get familiar with it, since almost any academic institution uses it. As an instructor, it's easy to post grades, send emails to individuals or the entire class, or post messages for the class. It's also easy to post material for the students.

One thing that I dislike is that when a student emails me through Blackboard, I'm not able to reply to their email from Outlook. Instead, if I try to reply, it would send the message to Blackboard instead of the student. It's a minor inconvenience to either log into Blackboard and message the student back, or look up their university email to reply. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am not a fan of Blackboard Learn. I wish this site was more attractive and less clunky. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Blackboard is very buggy! It does not open well on android platforms. There are a lot of phishing reports regarding blackboard as well.

I have also faced difficulties in submitting my .tar or .c files for assignments through blackboard just because it does not support the format. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the convenience of having all my courses at the same place. It is definitely easier to manage and organize course materials and grades. Recently we had to give a presentation in class and everyone submitted the Power point on Blackboard. All we had to do was log in to our Blackboard accounts and access the PowerPoint. It was very convenient and fast. there was no hassle of emailing or having to bring a flash drive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the website does not work well when I access it through my phone as the screen is smaller and buttons seem to overlap. I also can't scroll all the way properly. Another small thing I don't like is how it still says I have a notification even after I checked all my notifications. It makes me anxious. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the fact that this software will keep track and tabulate grades for me which makes my end of semester efforts SO much easier than they were previously. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As my school insists that I track attendance for all my classes, every semester I have to set up an Excel spread sheet to do this chore. It would be really nice if BB had this in the software somewhere easily accessible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Blackboard is a good website with a lot of educational tools which helps you in keeping everything together in one place. By that I mean, both jobs related, and course-related content if you are at a University. It has well-divided layouts and sections for specific things and it has also made group collaboration easy for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Blackboard has a lot of glitches. It is difficult to submit a lot of different file formats through blackboard and it constantly crashes, leaving your progress unsaved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I do like the ease of grading and posting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like the hoops I have to jump through. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Blackboard allows students to look at their grades, obtain class materials, and submit homework assignments. I like that blackboard is intuitive and very simple to use. I have never had any issues downloading materials or uploading assignments. Also, the organization of class materials is easy to navigate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have used both blackboard and canvas, and I prefer Canvas (another tool for class management) over Blackboard for the following reasons:

1. The canvas smartphone app makes it easy to check grades and announcements while on the go.There is no blackboard app.

2. In Canvas, you can message classmates to discuss class material, but this feature is absent in Blackboard.

Those are probably the largest drawbacks. Blackboard is a little more 'bare bones' than Canvas. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
