All You Need to Know About UAF’s Blackboard System

The University of Alaska Fairbanks, also known as UAF or the University of Alaska System, operates one of the largest university systems in the state and all over the country. Founded in 1909, it serves more than 20,000 students across its multiple campuses every year through its four colleges, five schools and institutes, and several other programs. Its flagship campus sits in Fairbanks, which is also where its main website lives at www.uaf.edu/ and where its administrative offices are located.

What is Blackboard?

UAF Edu is a course management system that assists instructors in managing their courses. Instructors can use the system for online and hybrid courses, as well as traditional face-to-face classes. With Blackboard, instructors are able to create course materials and post announcements, upload handouts, and assignments, set due dates, track grades, and provide feedback on work submitted by students. Students can view the syllabus, read announcements or discussions created by their instructor, submit work electronically or in hard copy form and receive feedback from the instructor.

The benefits of this system include convenience for both faculty and student with its centralized location where all course materials can be found easily at any time of day or night. Instructors can also make changes more quickly to reflect recent developments in course content while maintaining a cohesive organization. It also has many interactive tools like discussion boards, virtual laboratories, and quizzes that allow instructors to add variety to what would otherwise be a lecture-format class. One possible disadvantage of using this program could be that it may take up more of an instructor’s time because they have to develop new ways to teach in order for these features to come alive; however, the added interactivity does increase student engagement.

What Can I Do When My Class Doesn’t Use It?

The second important thing about accessing blackboard on campus knows how to log out. The easiest way to do this is to use the Sign Out button at the top right corner of the page. These log out both your UAF and blackboard accounts in one click! Now that you know how to sign out, what happens if you forget? There are two ways that forgetting can happen: forgetting your password or forgetting the name of your class.

If you forgot your username or forgot what class you’re enrolled in but remember what building it was held in, then head over to building location finder and search by building name and room number. If there is more than one room with the same number, select the appropriate department (e.g., Humanities) so that only rooms affiliated with that department show up on the map. Once selected, a pin will show up at its approximate location along with information about where to enter.
