Blackboard Ultra
Learn with the ULTRA Experience
Blackboard Learn with the Ultra Experience – a learner-centered environment designed to improve user efficiency and satisfaction in a modern, comfortable, and simple interface. This overview will help you, the instructor, become familiar with the new interface. The streamlined navigation and workflows are designed to allow you to get in, get done, and get out.
We will continue to use the "Original Course View" initially for all courses. Instructors will have the choice to preview their courses with the "Ultra" experience and make a decision to progress to Ultra early on. Eventually, ALL courses will be created in "Ultra" format only.
