What is Blackboard?

Blackboard is the Learning Management System (LMS) used by Vincennes University to deliver online courses and to enhance the learning experiences of on-campus students. With the Blackboard LMS, students can view content such as text/video/audio, submit assignments, post to discussion boards, communicate with their instructor and other students, take tests, receive feedback, and check their grades. With few exceptions for maintenance, Blackboard is available 24/7.

On this website you will find a series of tutorials that will teach you how to successfully navigate the online Blackboard environment. One of the elements to being a successful online student is knowing how to use the tools that help you to succeed.
