Step-by-Step Guides for Blackboard Version 6

The guides listed below provide Step-by-Step instructions on each specific function. Also included in the guides is a short explanation of the feature and a series of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's). These guides assume that you are starting each function from the beginning. If you are doing multiple guides in succession, you may be able to skip Steps 1 and 2. If you are only doing one guide, you may have to click the OK button several times to get out of the function.
