What is Blackboard Collaborate?
Blackboard Collaborate is an online collaboration system that allows groups to use their desktop computers to simultaneously (and in real time):
- Audio and video conference
- Share content such as documents, desktop applications, web-tours, whiteboard and files.
- Interact with each other e.g. through polls, quizzes, Q&As and text chat.
- Record online meetings for later playback.
Blackboard Collaborate also allows for you to manage meetings through various tools such as assigning roles and privileges to different participants.
