Scholar is a social bookmarking tool that works inside and outside of Blackboard courses. You can use Scholar as a personal bookmarking tool (like the del.icio.us tool available currently on the web), but if you teach a Blackboard course you can integrate your bookmark collections and searches into your courses.
Scholar is account-driven so you need to create a username and password to work with Scholar. If a user moves to another educational institution that uses Blackboard, he/she can use the same Scholar account. Like other social bookmarking tools, there is also a bookmarklet that allows you to add web sites to your list as you browse. The below guide can assist you in working with this application. |
