Blackboard is the site we use in the college as a student portal. Basically this means all your lecturers will put slides, assignment briefs etc. on it for you to access anywhere/anytime.
How do i get to it? First you have to go onto the IADT full website and click "quick links" and a drop-down menu will appear. In the image bellow you can see the quick links.......link in the top right hand corner:

What else does it have?
Good question. We can tell you're a smart one! Blackboard also has other handy features like a calendar that lecturers will put dates for CA's due, presentations etc.
It also has a function that will allow you to email your lecturers or look over past CA's that you've handed in. Another handy feature is that it has a chat system(like Facebook) that will allow you to chat with other people in your course. You can also access your grades through the "my grades" feature and has a dictionary on the left-hand sidebar.
