The Tasks page organizes tasks, defines task priority, and tracks task status.
A user can create tasks and post them to the Tasks page. Each user can post
personal tasks to their own page, and Instructors and Managers can post tasks
to users participating in their course and organization. Task information is
arranged in columns that display the priority, task name, status, and due date.
From the Control Panel:
- Click on the Tasks link under the Course Tools section.
- Click on the Add Task link.
- Type in the Task Title and Description.
- Choose the Due Date from the pull-down list.
- Select the Priority from the pull-down list.
- Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click the Submit
button.
More Information: Question: Why would I want to use the Tasks tool?
Answer: You may find that the Tasks tool is a great
asset when working on a large course project. It does a great job
of separating all the tasks needed to complete a project and you
can assign the task to students by listing them in the Description.
Question: Can I add my own personal tasks items?
Answer: Yes, you can have Blackboard track your
personal tasks items as well. However, you do not want to put these
into a course.
To add personal tasks items:
- Click on the My EITC tab at the top of the
page.
- Click on the Tasks link under the Tools section on the
right hand side of the screen.
- Add personal tasks items using the directions above.
Note: These tasks will be seen only by you and
not by your class. To view, you must enter the Tasks from the My
EITC tab, which will show all your personal tasks as well as
all of your course tasks.
