Blackboard is a great instructional technology tool that can enhance your course delivery. All North Shore Community College courses automatically have a Blackboard shell that provides faculty with a “private classroom” area for you and your students. In Blackboard, faculty can post announcements about the status of class with instructions on how to proceed through related learning activities; upload various types of content such as assignments, readings, lecture notes, or PowerPoint slides; link to related online resources such as YouTube videos or websites; set up assignment areas where students can submit homework; and facilitate discussions for students to engage with the course materials.
Blackboard Access Information
Blackboard can be accessed at https://blackboard.northshore.edu. Be sure to login through the Faculty and Student Login area using your MyNorthshore credentials.
