Blackboard is a web-based, password-protected course management system used by more than 11,500 students and 300 faculty in 825 UMBC courses each semester. At its best, Blackboard allows students and faculty to share documents such as syllabi, presentations, handouts and notes; communicate with each other through chats, discussion boards and email; and complete online assessments such as quizzes, surveys and interactive tutorials.
