Pros

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

Karla W.

President

“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.”

Robert m.

Head Of Strategic Marketing

“It wasnt to bad migh go better with a live tutorial”

Jim M.

Administrator

Pros

“Our district switched to standards based grading and we were able to make a customized gradebook with proficiency scales for standards in schoology. ”

Lisa N.

EdTech

“The LockDown Browser enabled secure testing within the app.”

Chad N.

Director of Operations, former teacher

“Additionally, it allows users to single sign on with their school Gmail account, which reduces the need for passwords.”

Jesse Z.

Software Engineer

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 But now blackboard is outdated and canvas is the leader .”

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.”

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.”

Robert m.

Head Of Strategic Marketing

Cons

“The automatic grading would mark answers wrong if there was any spacing or punctuation differences, requiring me to edit the incorrect answers.”

Laura D.

Medical Coder

“Additionally, the site doesn't allow you to remove parents associated with students and delete those accounts once you no longer want to check their grades.”

Jesse Z.

Software Engineer

“It seems like it isn't maintained as well as the rest of the PowerSchool options.”

Chad N.

Director of Operations, former teacher
