Blackboard is the heart of your online education experience at Detroit Mercy.
First, and most importantly, you should only use Chrome, Firefox, or Edge web browsers for general Blackboard use (some courses will employ LockDown Browser for assessments).

In the following short videos (around 2:30 each), we walk through logging in, finding your course site, polishing up your Blackboard profile, and using the Activity Stream and Calendar.
