With the adoption of Canvas as the learning management system at Case Western Reserve University, the previous system, Blackboard, will be decommissioned Friday, June 1. After this date, individuals will no longer be able to access content in that system.
Teaching and Learning Technologies recommends that students retrieve their content submitted through Blackboard that they might need to use for portfolios, applications and future classes before June 1. The following resources are available to help students locate and save their Blackboard work:
- Refer to the University Technology ([U]Tech) website
- Contact the [U]Tech Service Desk at help@case.edu, 216.368.4357 or help.case.edu
- Attend Blackboard Blitz training drop-in sessions
