Entering into our second Back to School season, the On Demand Learning Center continues to provide popular video tutorials and quick start guides to support students and teachers working in Blackboard Learn. After our first full year of recording statistics, we logged over 1 million page views! If you haven’t yet visited On Demand, you’ll find lots of short how-to videos and getting started guides covering course design, tool use, and much more. The On Demand Learning Center content is sorted into four main areas: • Understanding and Building Your Course • Communicating and Collaborating • Assessing Learners • For Students

I spend a lot of time on the web, doing research, reading the news, shopping, and social networking, not to mention doing my job. I have noticed that web design, like fashion design is very trendy. One of the latest trends I’ve noticed is using light gray text on a white background, or white text on a light green background, and other text-background color combinations that look stylish, but I can’t read. Well, ok, I can literally read them (as long as the font is over 6 pts.), but I can’t read fast and it’s a strain.
