Online Learning Communities

Duval County Public Schools uses Blackboard as the online course management system for all of our online courses. Currently these courses are for teachers and administrators only and not for students. In addition to using Blackboard for online professional development, it can also be utilized for online learning communities. Several schools have online learning communities set up in Blackboard and are sharing documents, presentations and other files, and using the forums for multiple "virtual" discussions. To access Blackboard, visit http://duvalk12.blackboard.com and log in. For demonstration purposes, we have set up usernames "teacher1" - "teacher25", with the password, "password". When you're ready to set up an online learning community for your school, please contact Paty Savage at savagep@dreamsbeginhere.org.
