How do I change my name in the UNI eLearning System?

Since the Bb Learn 9 eLearning System is integrated with the Student Information System (SIS), biographical updates (name changes, username changes) are now automatically updated daily in the UNI eLearning System.

If you do not like how your name appears in the Bb Learn 9 eLearning System, you will need to change it in the SIS.

Changing your name must be done in person and requires official documentation.

Is there a tutorial, quick reference guide, or something similar for basic user navigation of the eLearning system?

There are a few resources available to help.

Simple quick video tutorials are available in the "On Demand Learning Center for Students"  http://ondemand.blackboard.com/students.htm

A searchable on-line help system is available at "Blackboard Help for Studentshttp://help-archives.blackboard.com/Blackboard-Learn/9.1/SP09/EN-US/NAHE/Student/index.htm

What are the technical requirements for using the eLearning system?

If you have a Windows computer less than 8 years old or a Mac less than 5 years old, and your computer is capable of running a modern web browser it will work. Most users have an adequate computer and sufficient network connectivity to use the UNI eLearning system. There is a client Java requirement but the system will warn users if they don't have the required Java installation when they attempt to use a tool that utilizes a Java applet. Here are the officially supported client configurations:

Why doesn't my course appear in my UNI eLearning Course List?

Use of the eLearning system is based on the instructor's discretion. Although all UNI courses will have an eLearning site, the Instructor must make that course available for students to have access.

Students will have access to only the course(s) in which they are official registered for and the Instructor has made the eLearning site available.

Please contact the Instructor of the course(s) to see if they are using the UNI eLearning System and if they have made their eLearning course available to students.
