Pros

“Black board was one of the first web based learning for me.”
KW

Karla W.

“The web platform is intuitive and well organized, the menus are well positioned, I like that you can add multiple files, formats, Doc, pdf, YouTube links among others, in addition to its system to detect plagiarism.”

Cons

“Black board was an average experience when I first used it we were just beginning to start online learning. But now blackboard is outdated and canvas is the leader .”
KW

Karla W.

President

“The table of contents in the module object does not have active links that allow students to seamlessly jump from one item to another.”
MM

Mahlaga M.

Librarian

“What I don't like about blackboard is that the app for iPhone does not have all the tools that the web version has, this makes it not fully functional, there are apps from other learning platforms that have a more detailed app, another negative point is that it does not have an internal version for streaming video, it is totally uncomfortable since it gives you a link that is only compatible with safari and cannot be used in other browsers such as Google Chrome, in conclusion the app has to have a better adaptation to provide a good user experience.”
