Spring 2009 Blackboard Courses

  • Blackboard can only be accessed through the CUNY Portal. To access Blackboard you must create a CUNY Portal account.

  • Spring 2009 Courses are ready in CUNY Blackboard via the CUNY Portal

All Spring 2009 courses have been loaded into the CUNY Blackboard system and are accessible only via the CUNY Portal. If you have been associated with a course for the spring semester, that course will now be listed after you log in to CUNY Blackboard. Student rosters have also been loaded.

For online assistance with Blackboard 8 please consult the help pages posted by our colleagues at Hunter College.

Blackboard provides faculty control over course merges (combining several sections or rosters into one Blackboard course site).
More Information about combining Blackboard sections

If your courses are not listed on Blackboard, it is very likely that you are not the official instructor of the course yet. Please check with your department chair to confirm that your teaching assignment has been
submitted to the Registrar's Office and to Human Resources.

All courses are created as "Unavailable". This means that the instructor can see the course, but students cannot.

Instructions for making courses available:

  1. From the Control Panel, click on "Settings" under " Course Options".
  2. Now click on "Course Availability".
  3. Click "Yes" to make the course available to users (students and guests).
  4. Click "Submit" and then "OK" to complete the process.
  5. Once you have made the course available, you can go to guest access to permit or block guests from viewing the site.

Training Workshops will be available in February and during the semester. In addition, departmental chairpersons or groups of faculty may request group instruction by contacting Kevin Wolff directly at:
