Extended Text Box Tools
Blackboard 6 features a number of new options on their text box, which appears when the instructor adds or edits course content. These options include the ability to create bullet points, bold and italicize, change text color, spell check and add images and multimedia. There are also two mathematical equation editors available. Note: the extended text box tools are available only with Internet Explorer browsers. If you are using a competing browser (Netscape or Mozilla), you will only have access to the standard text box.
For further training in image and multimedia use in Blackboard, please contact the Instructional Design department.
Note: If you want to use video, sound, Flash or any other multimedia component in your Blackboard course, please first contact the Instructional Design department to discuss server options.
