| Thenew version of blackboard is up with new stuff and etc.. | Spoiler: | | | 
|
I'm a bit confused by the sudden changes. On the side note : Password are all reseted so the original password, your birthday is your blackboard password in this position YYMMDD So, explore this new place and help me out in changing my password again..
EDIT: I'll Start listing the bugs in the new version Blackboard so some students can watch out for it. I'll be putting it in a spoiler if the list gets long..
Problem 1 : Password Option not found or waiting to be found Solution| Spoiler: | | | [much thanks to satriakid]: To change your password, go to the open lab, login as student or use your ID and password to access. If you use the student username, login using the N icon at the taskbar, near the clock. Right click and go to Novell Admin, then logon to it. After you have done so, do a ALT+CTRL+DEL, then click on change password. Once done, you have your new password. If you login directly using your ID and password, just do the ALT+CTRL+DEL and change the password. This password change applies for all your Swinburne related accounts. This includes your Blackboard, PC access and StudentMail.
|
Problem 2 : Layout does not seem to meet up to the students' expectation Solution
Be sure to post a bug/problem if you found one so i can add it to the list

| I like the new one since it has more new stuff which is useful, but I still prefer the older one due to the speed it loads. The new one needs java script enabled if not mistaken. And I want to change my password also. _________________ Learn From The Past, Live The Present, Plan For The Future Team mD Moderator よろしくおねがいします~

| Slapstick, Maybe you can help us to compile the problem discover on the blackboard posted by our members on your 1st post as you are the topic starter, For example | Quote: | Problem Discovered in BB Problem 1 Solution 1
Problem 2
Problem 3 |
Of course we dont expect you alone to find the solution, maybe others found the solution and post under this thread, you just need to grab it and make edit on your 1st post and credit to the person who found it.
Purpose of doing this is to let our member / student to find the information easily instead of reading the entire long topic. Hope you can do it and serve the community. Besides, it will easier for the ITS to know whats happening and fastern their work for debuging the new BB. If you willing to help, please compile only important features like changing password. _________________
