October 13, 200817 yr So tonight I was taking a test on Blackboard for Psychology. It was 60 questions and 60 min test. Therefore, I had the internet up to help me. As some of you may know you can't start the test and go back again. You have to start and finish it in 1 hour. So I have the internet up and I'm using it to help me find answers and I have finished all the questions and start going back over it. I then bring up the Internet and hit the back button, I then find that I hit the back button on the TEST!!!!!! Therefore, I try and go back on the test like 2 seconds later and it won't let me. I'm about to cry right now, it won't let me back it so then I email that teacher as fast as I can and tell her what happened. I'm so worried I'll get a 0 on this test. What do you guys think? I hope she will see this as a honest mistake and let me somehow get some points. What is Blackboard ? When I was taking tests we had to use a pieces of charcoal on the back of a wooden shovel to write out the answers .
October 13, 200817 yr What is Blackboard ? When I was taking tests we had to use a pieces of charcoal on the back of a wooden shovel to write out the answers . Blackboard is a disaster. It's a website that many colleges use. It has forums for discussion, which are never used. It allows professors to post grades, assignments, powerpoint slides from class, etc.

October 13, 200817 yr Author Ok guys and gals I got the email from my teacher today and she said she was going to look and see if my test had been completed and if she couldn't find the test, she was going to let me take a hard copy test once we get back from fall break. She was understanding which is a very good thing.
October 14, 200817 yr Everyone hates Blackboard. It is convenient, but there is so many flaws that it is not even worth it.
October 14, 200817 yr I absolutly HATE using blackboard. I have to use it all the time for one of my classes and I cant stand it. Your professor should help you through it. Blackboard was why I graduated in 4 and a half instead of 4 years. Honestly, it's a bane to college existence.
October 14, 200817 yr Blackboard is terrible, but it was so easy to cheat. (Yeah, I cheated. Wanna fight about it?) You just got one of the unfortunate side effects.
October 14, 200817 yr I'm not a huge fan of blackboard. I mean it's okay but so many things can go wrong and when they do, if you don't have an understanding teacher then you are screwed. I've never had a problem with BB.

October 14, 200817 yr Yeah I have had that happen, and the teacher said too bad so sad. But it's alright, extra credit evened it out. I don't mind blackboard too much. None of my teachers at NKU have really used it in the four years I've been there, except for grades, and a few for quizzes. Not too rough. Sucks about your test though! Glad she was understanding! Some arent so lucky
October 14, 200817 yr Blackboard is the devil. The college here uses it and the students get behind every semester because of it. It's good when it's working but a pain when it's not.
October 14, 200817 yr I am taking two online classes through Blackboard this semester. I took one last semester and have taken a couple before that. I like classes on black board.
