could someone tell me how to get lectures off blackboard? i can't find the link anywhere!! thanks

Pinturicchio

Do you just meant the link for Blackboard?

blackboard.nuigalway.ie

not all lecturers put their material up on blackboard. you may need to go to the lectures to get the notes :eek:

iklepikle

Thanks but i am able to go onto blackboard.. its finding the lecture notes on blackboard that is the problem. my english lecturer has said that all of our lectures are up on blackboard now but i dont know where to get them!..?

RolandIRL

there should be a list of modules listed on the right hand side of the page - My Courses. there could be a problem with your registration. email your lecturer and say that his module isn't showing up on your blackboard. are there other courses there?

iklepikle

I think i might need to e-mail my lecturer and tell him there is a problem because none of my lectures are showing up there! Thanks!!

RolandIRL

have you registered online for your courses? there's always problems with bb every year though

iklepikle

ya im pretty sure i have them registered but i might not have done it correctly!!.. i have been getting e-mails and notices about the subjects that i have registered for though so i think i might have it done right!!

as commented on another thread, it might be that the lecturer concerned hasn't selected the 'make course available' option. By default Blackboard modules are only accessible by the teaching staff until they have materials uploaded and are then ready to be released. Occassionally a staff member may forget that they have to select this option. Worth dropping them a note to ensure that they have made it available. It takes a couple of clicks for them to fix the problem if that's what it is.

When you log into blackboard, click on "Course Catalog"

On the right hand side, you should have all the courses you are enrolled in. Click on the one you want, and an announcements page will come up. Then if you click on the "documents" link on the left side of the page, there should be lecture notes in there

If not, your lecturer probably hasn't put them up yet.

My English blackboard is AWOL aswell. Legal Science is grand, but I think there's some sort of technical problems with the English one.

IainML

no technical problems, with Blackboard, but in first Arts you won't appear in Blackboard until the schools and college process all the module choices and send it formally to records. Once you have actually been enrolled on a module you will have access to the Blackboard site for that module - provided of course the lecturer has made it available.

elefant

well I'm 4th Arts. I just sent a mail to reghelp@nuigalway.ie with my module numbers and student number and now it's sorted

Hi all....

Is blackboard down today for alot off people or is it just our course??

RolandIRL

i'm able to log in grand, and see all my modules. is it one module that's missing or can you just not log in?

Bummer1234

I can log in grand and see all my modules,When it comes to clicking on them its just "The website cannot display the page".

RolandIRL

nope, all of them are working for me. are you on a slow connection, cos bb can time out for me sometimes, or are you on the college computers/wifi?

Bummer1234

Im in the college in the IT Block.
