Q.1 Do I need to use my Kean Student ID anymore?
All users must use their KEANGoogleMail userID and password to login to the BlackBoard CE8 system. For WebCT4.1 system, the login policy will remain unchanged. Students will continue loggin in using their Kean Student ID and generic password (Last name with first letter capitalized) and Faculty will continue using their WebCT 4.1 userID and password. You will still need to keep your Student ID handy while filling out support forms.
Q.1 I do not see my classes listed. What should I do?
BlackBoard CE8 is fully integrated with the Datatel Colleague system that holds the registration information. As long as you are listed as the instructor for a particular section in the registration system, your course will automatically populate in Blackboard CE8. In other words, if you are listed as the instructor for a particular section, you will be enrolled as an Instructor/Designer in Blackboard CE8 system as well.
