Blackboard Learn Unavailable on Thursday, Aug. 18

Blackboard Learn will be unavailable from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Aug. 18, while Information Technology Services performs maintenance to upgrade the learning management system. The upgrade will not change the look or function of Blackboard Learn, although it will implement some new features and enhancements, including an interactive grading rubric, a "needs grading" reminder tool, improvements to the timed assessment feature, and a new SCORM (Sharable Content Object Reference Model) content player.
