Any documents/videos linked below were created by Blackboard. The items linked below are there in case you want to take a look at the tool to get a little more information before attending training.
Some descriptions below were copied from a document created by Blackboard concerning the changes from Blackboard 9 to 9.1.
The trainings will be offered as follows:
File Management within Blackboard 9.1: "Course files eliminate redundancy and simplify the management of content updates. An in-course file storage structure makes it easier to keep track of documents used in courses, similar to the type of file and folder structure that is used on your PC. A new thumb nail view and drag and drop upload applet make it quick and easy to get files into Blackboard and to view the image files."
