You must activate Blackboard before you or the students in your class can use it. You will need your NetID and password to use Blackboard.

Movies

Weekly showings of movies will require a regularly scheduled film lab to be submitted with the course schedule. A classroom will be regularly available for the viewing.

Periodic showings of films can be dealt with in one of three ways:

Put the film on reserve at Gelardin New Media Center. Students may visit the library at their convenience to view the film.

Arrange for a showing of the film in the CCT conference room. Contact Heather Kerst to book the room.

Consult with the Registrar to find an available room on campus for your film showing. Contact the CCT Office for help with the process.
