Blackboard Leadership Breakfast: Above and Beyond

We call today’s learners Millennials, Generation Next, or the Net Generation for good reason. They are in constant communication with each other, and use media, and digital technologies almost instinctively. They are connected, wired for the next moment’s activities, and view the world through the prism of their own interests. This worldview is different from that of previous generations and the difference affects their learning significantly. Students now live in an interconnected, always- on world and therefore the path to student engagement and learning has changed.


The platform Blackboard Learn provides Teachers, Students and Parents easy access to relevant course material, announcements, assessment tasks and grades.  This ensures that authentic learning experiences can happen as students are engaged and challenged by the tasks at hand.
