Like I said, Blackboard can be different depending upon the school. I think
the school's Information technology team can make all the difference when it
comes to a good or a bad experience on their web site.

Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] Using blackboard with JFW
I used Blackboard in college and the experience was very frustrating
but not because it was inaccessible. On some days it would work fine
and on others it wouldn't let me log in or things would appear empty.
Mostly, I used the group discussion, the drop box/e-mail (don't
remember the name) and the link for reading assignments. All were
accessible. I graduated from college four years ago, but a sighted
friend who's now in college is having the same issues that I did, if
not worse. Sometimes, her assignments don't get sent through or she
won't receive the instructions from the professor etc. I can't tell
you about the accessibility today, because, as I said, my friend is
sighted. But definitely be prepared for alot of headaches.
Good luck,
Eleni

Hello all, can anyone comment on the use of Blackboard with JFW 11? I
will be working with a student that has to use the Blackboard software
in their classes. Which portions are accessible and what tips and
tricks are needed. Any experiences and opinions would be greatly
appreciated.
