Rosters in Blackboard now include student pictures!

Would you like to have a head start on getting to know your students by name? This fall for the first time faculty will have access within Blackboard to id pictures of the students in their classes. Access to these pictures will be limited to faculty, and faculty will only be able to see students in classes that they are teaching, and only those students with QU id cards. Please note that not all freshman will have id pictures available on the first day of class.

To access the picture roster, log in to Blackboard, select your course, open the control panel, and in the course tools box - click on "student roster", the last item in the box.

Although access to the online rosters is limited to faculty, you may choose to print out, copy and share the rosters with your students so that they can learn each others names and develop a sense of community within the classroom.
