UAA Basics: Resources for Blackboard and Elluminate Live

Blackboard Basics Most commonly-asked questions students have about using Blackboard. Blackboard is the learning management system the CRS Certificate Program uses for its on-line course work. Students will use Blackboard to access course materials, interact with instructors and classmates, and submit assignments.

Elluminate Live--Getting Started Elluminate Live! (aka eLive) provides a unique opportunity for instruction and collaboration in distance education courses. With an intuitive approach, eLive is an easy-to-learn online program that encourages interacting and working together. Watch the "Getting Started" video to learn more about how E-Live is used in CRS courses. Students will need computer access and a headset with both ear pieces and microphones to use E-Live. Headsets can be purchased at the UAA Bookstore, most electronic outlets, Walmart, and Fred Meyers.
