Overall Satisfaction with Blackboard
I used Blackboard back in college and it was a great tool for connecting students with their professors. It made it so easy to access assignments or different handouts from class that you may have missed. In addition, it provides a way for you to virtually hand in assignments if you miss class or if it's easier for the professor to do it that way. The platform also allows for collaboration among student groups for class, because you're able to have discussion boards and your own group pages to collaborate with one another.
Pros
- Collaboration
- Discussion
- Connecting educators and students
- User-friendly
- Access to assignments

Cons
- Not very visually appealing
- Would be nice if all professors adopted it, some refuse to use it
- Frequently get errors when sometimes handing in assignments or uploading documents
- Better communication
- Better learning experience
- Improved grades
- Easier collaboration
Using Blackboard
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
Like to use Relatively simple Easy to use Technical support not required Well integrated Consistent Quick to learn Convenient Feel confident using Familiar | None |
- Uploading
- Downloading documents
- Participating in discussion boards
- Not visually appealing
- If teachers have too many folders or topics it can be hard to find information
- The timeout feature can make your submissions not go through
Yes - It works well but it's not the most visually friendly and it's somewhat of a pain to use. It's much easier and quicker to go on the computer and look up what you need that way. Doing it on a phone takes a while to load and I've frequently gotten error messages when trying to use it.
