Create achievements on ilearn

What are achievements?

You can use Blackboard achievements to create opportunities for students to earn recognition for their work. You designate criteria for issuing achievements to students in the form of both badges and certificates.

Students can see which badges and certificates they have earned and what is required to receive additional recognition. They can gain insight into learning progression toward defined competencies.

Students can publish badges to the Badge Backpack and transport evidence of their learning outside of Blackboard Learn.

Instructors can create three types of achievements:

Course Completion (requires a certificate; a badge is optional) Milestone (badge only) Custom (can be either a certificate or a badge)

How to create an achievement?

Your achievements appear in content areas and in the achievements tool.

How to manage Drop-In Sessions on Blackboard Collaborate

In order to learn how to manage Drop-In Sessions on Blackboard Collaborate with Breakout Groups, you can either follow the video tutorial or the step-to-step guide below.

Important to Note:

In Walk-in situations we will treat the Main Room as Reception or Waiting Area while the Breakout Groups will be reserved for one-to-one or small group private interactions. Settings and access permissions apply to the Main Room. Within the Breakout group, Participants or Presenters will have the same access as the Moderator. For instance, they will be able to share and remove files, share their screens and access their camera and microphone. Only the Moderator has the ability to place all participants where they are needed in the Session. During walk-ins, once a new student enters a Breakout Group the chat history is automatically erased. However, files shared within the Breakout Group will still be visible and...
