Blackboard Learning System is an online education system that allows for the development of online courses and communication techniques that are traditionally offered in a classroom, without physically meeting. It also offers additional support to supplement in-class meetings.

Students are able to add content to their calendars, chat with other students from their classes, create notes, and view their progress, as well as their grades.
