Blackboard provides a go-to place for students to find out the essential information about a course. That's the benefit of any learning management system. Students have one place to go to find what they need to know about each course. It has been crucial to our operations in a virtual environment since the pandemic began. 

It provides ease of access and continuity across an institution. We use it throughout the college for all courses, from technical programs to liberal arts courses, so students are familiar with the Blackboard interface. That is a plus.

It is a comprehensive learning management system with fully integrated solutions. It encompasses various components, including course delivery modules, content management, community engagement features, digital classrooms, and mobile integration. Students can access their course content, and classes, and participate in Blackboard Collaborate using a mobile application, making it a versatile and complete support system. It serves as a crucial source of information. For example, tracking student attendance is vital due to legal and regulatory requirements. Having this attendance data is essential, and Blackboard facilitates this through Application Programming Interfaces. 

Blackboard allows us to manage all our users since it has a very powerful server that supports the platform. For example, we have had courses of up to five thousand users and the software has always been stable. With other LMS products, there were problems with slowness when many users signed up or interacted at the same time.

We are developing engaging content, putting some of the content online (blended mode) which helps students to learn via attractive features like games, quizzes, etc.
