Rien pour le moment le reste c'est de saisir

Avantages

Pleins de fonctionnalités tant du coter professeur que du coter élève. Super simple de compréhension

Inconvénients

Des petits bug dans l’affichage des textes, mais sinon top !

Avantages

Je le trouve très pratique et très fiable pour l'utilisation.

Inconvénients

Je le recommande pour un bon apprentissage.sans aucune faillite

Avantages

I like that it organizes courses in a very neat way, the website is easy to navigate and looks great visually. The calendar is very helpful.

Inconvénients

It's not very easy to use for teachers. They often have a hard time understanding all of the features Blackboard provides.

Avantages

I must admit wrestling with Blackboard in 2015 when first encountered, but I've learned it to be reliable and fairly simple to use. Everything about it makes sense and navigation is easy. The system does the math for accurate grade recording and stores information for as long as needed in order to verify work submitted and grades recorded.

Inconvénients

My least favorite thing was being thrust into Blackboard initially after using only Moodle. Our school offered some group training and I took advantage of several help sessions, too. The systems are different, but I believe Blackboard to be superior in every way.

Avantages

I like the discussion board feature as the feature is the most used.

Inconvénients

The user interface design is a bit outdated compared to nowadays LMS platforms. I think the colors, fonts, and the overall interface can be improved.

Avantages

It is an organized system, fairly easy to navigate but not as user friendly than other products.

Inconvénients

The email system and the Discussions forums, they could be further developed to become easier to navigate

Avantages

Blackboard Learn equips all stakeholders with a reliable information through learning

Inconvénients

Blackboard Learn is determined and no demerit.

Avantages

Blackboard Learn employs a feature where many other apps and learning platforms can be smoothly integrated into the LMS.

Inconvénients

I do not find Blackboard Learn to be intuitive.

Avantages

Blackboard Learn, now Anthology, revolutionized online and distance learning with amazing features in one place; its intuitive interface, different tools and integrations are all there to make the learning process smooth and enjoyable. Educators can manage courses and users in few clicks, have an idea about their activity stream, set assignments and tests with the help of Ai. In fact, introducing Ai tools brought Blackboard Learn to the fore: you can generate texts, activities, tests and assignment away from ChatGPT based platforms.

Inconvénients

I have few words on what is missing in Blackboard Learn particularly system requirements: I often experience system crashes and lagging with Blackboard Learn platform. I still have something against cloud-based solutions as the file size with Blackboard Learn does not allow large files, which is weird, educators often need large files. One more thing, it is not ideal for small businesses.

Avantages

Announcements and features are easy to do.

Inconvénients

Too many steps to erase content I feel confused at times

Pourquoi passer à Blackboard Learn

Avantages

Overall the platform does what it needs to do. It improved overtime.

Inconvénients

When I first started using it, it didn’t have the best UI.

Avantages

It is fairly easy to use. It does take some getting used to and some of the functions don't make a lot of sense until you get used to it

Inconvénients

There is a learning curve you must adjust too

Avantages

I used Blackboard for almost 10 years, and it was a decent LMS for my needs. When Blackboard Collaborate came out, it was even better because it added a new layer of possibilities (I could have several webinar/conversations going, merge conversations, and/or present to different groups at one time). However, there were always bugs in the system, even though we updated constantly. The Blackboard app was also very limited.

Inconvénients

Too many bugs and freezes; many of my students had issues with accessing links when they used different internet browsers. Good for a small school or business, but not larger ones.

Avantages

It’s impressive how online learning can be easily managed by utilizing key features. It’s virtual classroom and assignment/tests are one of the best in the industry.

Inconvénients

Sometimes it takes too long to load the documents or lags when all the students log in at the same time for a common use like test or group activity.

Avantages

Blackboard is a well-created product that is easy to navigate for both administrators and students. It was intuitive to follow the flow a path to find content needed at a given time. There was no confusion to find lecture notes, grades, or messages from an administrator. I have used multiple learning management systems, and BBL is my favorite

Inconvénients

Blackboard was more costly than other competitors, so our organization had to transition tools because of this.

Avantages

Blackboard Learn allows me to track the progress of the students. If one of my students is falling behind on an assignment, it notifies me then I would contact the student about their missing assignment. These are the features that I like the most about Blackboard Learn.

Inconvénients

Blackboard Learn does not handle large file sizes well. There was an incident where a student of mine couldn't hand in an assignment due to their file size being too big. Following that event, the student had to send me their assignment via email. Blackboard Learn should increase its file size limit in order to prevent this from happening again.

Avantages

It is easy to navigate blackboard, view assignments, grades, etc. At my college, my professors post everything on this site, including grades, the syllabus, assignments, and contact information. The only time it's hard to navigate is when a professor doesn't organize the class well, and that is not on Blackboards end.

Inconvénients

The emailing feature within blackboard can be a bit finicky at times, so I tend to find the professors email and send an email directly to them.

Avantages

I liked that you could set it to send reminders about when upcoming assignments were due. It was very helpful from that perspective.

Inconvénients

I thought the user interface was clunky and needed work. It was sometimes hard to navigate and there would often be times where students would have to ask how to do something in the platform.

Avantages

The features which helps the instructor as well as the students to track the records, go through the assessments, course. It is also easy to use which makes it more used to for teachers and students for one go.

Inconvénients

Sometimes if there are 5000-7000 student usage at the same time, it hangs for a few minutes.But it is resolved now and the team is working to get through it.

Avantages

Blackboard is one of the most easier and intuitive softwares that I have ever used. I really like it because its videoconferencing platform is really easy to use and has a very powerful tool called "Safe Assign".

Inconvénients

The software could improve its social learning by creating an environment where all the students enrolled in a classroom could post and share any doubts, news, and even discuss about various topics.

Avantages

Blackboard Learn has an easy to use assessment management system that allows faculty to share documents with colleagues and administrators that allow for assessing both online, hybrid, and fully in-person courses for accreditation purposes.

Inconvénients

Blackboard Learn has an easy to use customizable reports that are simple to generate and share with colleagues and administrators. However, I rarely use this feature but it might be good for administrators who assess faculty performance for promotion and tenure evaluations.

Avantages

I like the powerful features and security of the program

Inconvénients

BB is the most frustrating program I have ever used. It was one of the 1st LMS programs-I have heard. Its design is clunky and seems to be created by someone with little UXUI experience, I mean UXUI was a field that was known only by the people in the top of their field 20+ years ago so that would make sense! The lack of logical design for buttons and search areas is aggravating. The lack of them going back and changing things for the better and getting a visual designer and UXUI person involved NOW to fix the program-is again aggravating. An example to add a user, you click on a menu item-it goes to a window on the right and there is a search field there which one is supposed to ignore and know somehow to click on a button that does not look like a button called "Find Users To Enroll". WHY, is the search field even showing? Do you know how many times if I get away form using BB for a few weeks or months I end up typing in that filed instead of a button that does not look like a button? Explaining to faculty to NOT type in the field is a constant, because your intuition thinks the design makes sense-it does not.

Avantages

Blackboard was simple, straightforward, and easy to understand. I believe anyone could use it and get comfortable within the first 2 uses. It's adaptable and user-friendly.

Inconvénients

I did not like how the software had a high tendency to be unreliable. It would shut down, freeze or simply not accept work or media. I think in part, its use on the Safari web browser could be the problem as using it o Chrome did not garner the same results. I do think the platform should be reviewed on different web browsers to fix these issues and optimize the results.

Avantages

1. it's an LMS and something is better than nothing.
2. It's full of examples I can show my students on how not to do UI and UIX
3. Well established company is behind it
4. Modular front-end
5. Many bells and whistles

Inconvénients

1. Counter intuitive, clunky, awkard UI (User Interface) - improve it by hiring UI/UIX experts and giving them actual control over the app interface and functions.
2. Slow (even when on the same network node or high speed cable connection) - needs a code rewrite/optimization.
3. Ancient aesthetics (although some design elements are now "flat design-ish") - hire UI and UIX designers and actually allow them to direct the final interface.
4. Many glitches (I've a folder full of screen-shots, if you want proof) - again a code rewrite needed, or ideally a complete start-over with newer code philosophies and methods.
