Using Blackboard for e-learning
Advantages: Provide flexible and
accessible learning resources
Can engage and motivate students
Fosters interaction and collaboration
Effective and efficient teaching tool
Disadvantages: Dependent on IT access
and skills Can foster superficial
learning Can frustrate, isolate and
de-motivate students May be time-consuming
to utilise
Application must be differentiated dependent on curriculum, students, staff time and resources
