Blackboard will be unavailable January 2nd 2025, from 1:00am until 7:30am for scheduled maintenance by Anthology. During this time, you will be unable to log into Blackboard or access any Blackboard resources.
If your instructor enabled class conversations for some individual content items, you could discuss the content with your instructor and classmates. You can ask for help, share sources, or answer others' questions. As the conversation develops, it appears only with the relevant content.
Option1: When someone contributes to a conversation, an icon appears next to the item's title on the Course Content page. Open the item's menu and select conversation to view the conversation.
Option 2: Select the Open class conversation icon in the upper-right corner of an item's panel or layer. A purple circle appears with the icon to indicate new activity.
Conversations are set up the same as discussions. Two levels of replies are allowed for each first-level response.
A. What do you want to say? Add a response or reply to a classmate or your instructor
B. Save a draft. You can start a response, save it as a draft, and finish it later.
C. What's new? New responses and replies appear with a New icon.
D. Delete contributions. Select the trash can to delete your responses, but you can't make edits. Replies to your deleted responses remain. If necessary, your instructor can remove anyone's responses.
E. View activity and search for participants. View the list of participants and their activity, and search for a specific participant.
F. Refresh your view. Check for new activity since you opened the Conversation.
