As of December 3, 2014, faculty may access the new Blackboard site during the preview phase of our migration to managed hosting. This preview phase allows faculty to prepare course materials for the Winter and/or Spring 2015 terms and to provide valuable feedback to DoIT regarding the interface and tools.
- Go to my.umbc.edu/go/bbnew
- Note: You will use this temporary web address until late December. It is intended only for faculty and staff at this time.
- Click on the black button, LOG IN TO BLACKBOARD. If you are not already logged in to myUMBC, you will be prompted to do so with your UMBC credentials.
Under the My Courses nugget and the All Courses tab, you will see courses from AY12-13 and AY13-14. Winter and Spring 2015 courses are also listed based on the schedule of courses, but unavailable.
- Fall 2014 courses will not be migrated until after final grades are submitted. Information about this process will be released after the holiday break. You will still access those courses through the current self-hosted Blackboard site.
Additional guidelines and instructions are available in this FAQ article or download the FAQ article as a PDF to reference.
