Introducing Blackboard LearnOnline Collection

The Blackboard LearnOnline Collection will allow faculty to centralize their course materials for easy updating and deployment to students and other faculty. There are also many other Benefits to using the LearnOnline Collection.

Instructors will have a quota of 400MB in their My Collection Area of the LearnOnline Collection to store their course content. Individual Course Site quotas will be reduced to 20MB per site. The My Collection Area quota may also be increased for instructional purposes per request.

Users can assign their content to Personal, Course or Institutional access. The Electronic Portfolio features allow students to create a dynamic online presence to store and showcase their coursework.

Feel free to register for an upcoming Workshop on the LearnOnline Collection at the OTS Training site: http://www.towson.edu/otstraining.
