D2L Information

Important note: Blackboard goes dark at the close of the Spring 2009 semester. You will need to transition to D2L before then. No worries - I will help you. Plan to attend one of many scheduled workshops to learn about D2L. If you aren't able to attend one, please contact me about scheduling 1-on-1 training.

Below are some resources to help you and your students become familiar with D2L:

  Flyer to Hand out to Students
  Tutorials and Training Materials for Students
  Full-on Hefty Instructor Manual
  Quick Start Guides: Content / Discussions / Dropbox / Classlist / Quizzes / Grades
  User Guides: Content / Discussions / Dropbox / Quizzes / Grades
