Overall Satisfaction with Blackboard Collaborate
Blackboard Collaborate was used by many professors and teaching assistants at our university to conduct classes, review and study sessions, lectures, presentations, etc. Blackboard is already used for most if not all of the courses offered here so it’s easy to transition to using another product with the same login credentials to ensure simplicity and ease of access.
- You can kick out people who are disruptive or not meant to be in the room.
- Ability to see who’s talking through highlights
- Options for cameras on or off depending on preference
- Sometimes sound quality is poor
- Difficult to monitor the chat with many users
- Could incorporate a list with the raise hand feature to see who raised their hand and when
- Reduced costs- no need to purchase extra conferencing software
- Efficiency- one platform for everything
- Improved value- allowed classes to meet online live when we couldn’t in person
