STUDENTS, WELCOME TO THE ONLINE ENVIRONMENTS FOR BLACKBOARD AND ELLUMINATE LIVE
If you are taking an ITV, Internet, or a traditionally enhanced class, you will receive a "Welcome Letter" with access information.  The same day you register for the class, you will automatically be added to the class roster, in Blackboard.  If you are new to Blackboard and/or Elluminate Live, we strongly encourage you to review the Student Resources.  After viewing the resources, be sure to login early to check your browser configuration, computer configurations, become familiar with the Blackboard and/or Elluminate Live environments, to get the syllabus, and check for special requirements or see if there is an early assignment.

  • A computer with Internet access.
  • A supported and properly configured browser. To view supported browsers and configurations go to http://www.webct.com/tuneup.
