Tool Availability - These tools are standard by Blackboard and include both instructor and student tools. The various tools are listed on the left hand side of the page. Opposite each tool are two options. These are Available and Allow Guest. Clicking the check box under the appropriate option will determine access for that tool. An “n/a” indicates that choice is not applicable for that specific tool.

Building Block Tool Availability - These are custom system extensions and must be added by your system administrator.

Content Type Availability - Click the box next to the appropriate content tools: Item, URL, Test, Survey, Assignment and LRN Package to enable them.
