Blackboard and Microsoft Vista
If you are a student this is an important little bit of information. Blackboard is the name of a program that allows students, teachers, and colleges to communicate easily and safely together. In some cases, your grade will depend on weather or not you receive certain information through this program so it must be functional.
The problem seems to be that the announcement feature does not work like it’s supposed to. This means that if are experiencing this problem, you will not be able to compose any kind of a message. This can be critical when a student tries to contact a teacher or when a teacher tries to broadcast an assignment to his/her students.
To remedy this problem a variety of solutions have been published. This problem actually has multiple culprits so I will be going beyond Vista related solutions as well as solutions that are just precautionary measures.
Disable the Microsoft WYSIWYG editor
1) Log into blackboard using your states portal
2) Select the “personal information” button from the tools on the left of all blackboard screens
3) Select, “set text editor options” and choose,”Unavailable” under Set Availability.
This should do the trick. You should now be able to work blackboard fine.
Changing your Browsing History
This is to make sure your settings are saved in your computer
1) Click on “tools” and select, “internet options”
2) Click on the, “General” tab and click, “settings”
3) In “temporary internet files” click the radio button that says, “every time I visit a webpage”
Now you have successfully changed the WYSIWYG editor which stands for, “what you see is what you get”. Basically, it is a code based program that allows you to change font and size without having to hand code everything. Apparently a problem arose with this program. Changing your browsing History will allow you to keep the changed settings so you won’t have a problem until blackboard is updated.
