so what’s this all about?

Posted by on June 22, 2006 * Comments(0)

Learning Development Services (LDS) at ECU are currently running a project which aims to implement the Blackboard Academic Suite during 2007, including Bb Learning Management System v7.1, the community system and the content system.

This is a phased roll out, with an initial pilot phase during semester 2, 2006.

This first phase will involve a sample group of academic courses, using version 7 of the LMS with access to most of the features of the community and content systems.
