Building
courses on Highline’s server
·
Faculty and staff need to complete an orientation
to create courses/sites. Request at the Bb support site or directly from
Instructional Design at id@highline.edu.
·
Student orientations are at the discretion of the
instructor.
·
Courses can be created one quarter before a class
is taught and kept for one quarter after.
·
The online form for submitting course requests can
be found on the Bb support site at http://flightline.highline.edu/blackboard.
Its direct URL is http://bob.highline.edu/blackboard/index.php?opt=new_course.
Student
accounts and course enrollment
·
Registered students will be enrolled by
Instructional Computing (IC) the day before the quarter starts, or within the week
prior to the first day. You can make your course “Unavailable” so that students
can’t access them before the start of the quarter. For instructions, see http://flightline.highline.edu/blackboard/howto/availability.html.
·
Updates will be made daily for the first two weeks
of class. Contact ICHelp for updates after that period.
·
Once a student has a Bb account, you can
enroll/unenroll him or her using the Control Panel. Note that you must manually remove any student
who drops. See http://flightline.highline.edu/blackboard/howto/index.html
for how-tos.
·
Student accounts will use the standard IC account
and password formula (more information about this at http://flightline.highline.edu/ic/ichelp/passwords.php).

Logging
In
Go to the BlackBoard site at http://blackboard.highline.edu
Instructors have two different usernames for
BlackBoard. One is for you as an instructor. The other is a "student"
login, which allows you to see what your course looks like for your students.
Instructor ID
Your instructor ID is the same as your network
logon at Highline. It will be the first letter of your first name, followed by
the first seven letters of your last name. Use the "Forgot
Password" feature (click on the link on the BlackBoard
login screen to use this feature) at first login to set or reset your password.
Student ID
Your student ID allows you to see how your courses
will look to students. The username follows the pattern that all student users
follow. It will be the first seven letters of your first name, followed by the
first seven letters of your last name. Click on the "Forgot
Password" link on the BlackBoard login screen to get
your student password. Remember to use your student username when filling
out the Forgot Password form!
