Moodle™ rooms and Blackboard Collaborate
Blackboard Collaborate works within the Moodle™ rooms modules as an activity. This makes it easier for teachers to incorporate a videoconference session in their courses. Students are not required to install Java or download any kind of file.
The Collaborate session opens in a new tab or window and is ready to be used. Once the professor adds the Collaborate activity within the course, they will be able to configure what type of sessions they wish to make and in what way students will be involved.
This integration shall make courses more interactive, collaborative, and with more possibilities to impart knowledge.
