Beginning this Spring 09 semester , CUNY has upgraded to the newer version of Blackboard V8.0.

Blackboard is a course management system that allows schools to conduct fully on-line and hybrid (face-to-face) classes. Faculty can post materials, deliver tests and surveys, hold on-line discussion and many other course-related functions. All currently-enrolled students and faculty can access the Blackboard system that is available 24/7 from anywhere on the internet.

Blackboard V6.3 will still be accessible to faculty. Starting Spring 09 semester, all Spring 09 Backboard courses will be on Blackboard V8.0.

If you are new to blackboard, you will need a CUNY Portal login ID.
