Hello everyone!
The time is almost here! Courses online begin tomorrow, and you may be wondering where your courses are held! Wonder no more! :-)
I've had a peek into both systems and here is where you can find which courses:
Blackboard Vista (aka "Blackboard 8") http://boston.umassonline.net
- APLING 612 : Integrating Culture into the Curriculum
- APLING 621 : Psycholinguistics
- APLING 623 : Sociolinguistics
- APLING 670 : Testing in the ESL Classroom
Blackboard Learn (aka "Blackboard 9") http://umb.umassonline.net
- APLING 601 : Linguistics
- APLING 605 : Theories and Principles of Language Learning
- APLING 614 : Foundations of Bilingual/Multicultural Education
- APLING 678 : Technology in Language Education
NOTES:
Since Professor Smith passed away last spring, I've been involved in getting APLING 601 up and running for this fall. I've noticed that the Blackboard Administrators have not (yet) copied over the newest version of the course that has a lot more content. I am working today to get things settled for Week 1 while I try to get the most up-to-date version of the course available to you :-)
As always: If you find this helpful and informative, please click the "like" button :-)

Ah, yes! This is from 2012 when the campus was migrating from Blackboard 8 (aka "vista") to our new system :)
When I click on Blackboard 8, there is no DNS address. The page doesn't work. When I click on 9, Blackboard comes up, but says I am not enrolled in any courses.
