Blackboard Review
What do you like best about the product?
I have used Blackboard extensively and I have noticed many pros to the platform. It provides easy and clean organization of files. The instructions for submission of tests and assignments were clear and concise. It was also easy to customize the website and add reminders if needed.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some cons of blackboard were the integration into a mobile app was not as seamless as other platforms, such as canvas. This should be improved on so students can easily reach the site when they do not have a computer available to them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Blackboard allows for faster communication with professors and students and also allows for a better organization of assignments and exams.

I used blackboard learn all through college and found it very easy to navigate and function. The timeliness of assignments and how teachers and students could easily interact throughout discussion boards made learning and grading that much easier.

Occasionally the system would need a reboot while trying to reply or even start a discussion board. Other than that I’ve only had one other issue where it wouldn’t let me submit an assignment.

It allowed an entire college community of teachers, faculty and students to be interconnected to better the students learning abilities and improve effective communication.
