Digital Learning Environment: Blackboard
Blackboard is a Digital Learning Environment (DLE) that you can use to digitally support your lectures or courses. Blackboard allows you to post all your timetables, assignments, lecture sheets and literature lists in one place, and update them as needed.
Add a course
In principle, a course is added to Blackboard automatically. If your Blackboard course is not created automatically, you can apply for a course via your Faculty contact person. Please make sure your application includes the following information:
- Your name
- Your ULCN user name
- The title of the course
- The study programme
- The semester
- The uSis code (you can find the relevant uSis code in the e-prospectus)
Copyright for teachers
Make sure you comply with copyright when publishing materials via Blackboard. For more information on copyright, see the University Library website.
Copy a course
If you need a copy of an existing course in Blackboard, please inform your contact person, and don’t forget to mention the course’s title and ID. Old courses are not removed immediately, so the students’ results will not be lost.
