    Had everything I needed; good price, instant delivery :-)
  

*by J***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 13, 2012*

I recently started a new part-time teaching job at our local university, and Blackboard is an optional tool which is made available to us.  The school provides basic setup instructions, but I wanted to be able to use Blackboard for assignments, quizzes, grading, etc. Blackboard includes online tutorials, but I was looking for something faster and easier-- something I could just read and get the job done.I purchased the Kindle version of the book, which made it available immediately (nice).  The price was good, and the content was just what I needed.  I think I'm hooked on the Kindle's e-book features such as pulling up the table of contents and clicking on the item you want to read-- then going there directly. Using the cloud reader, I was able to open two windows and have the e-book on one side of my screen and Blackboard on the other.  Very handy.My students appreciate having all of our material online, the ability to take quizzes at home before coming to class, the built-in email and the instant feedback on their assignments.

    There Has Got to be a Better Help Book Somewhere
  

*by J***M on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 23, 2013*

I'm a Blackboard novice who wanted to save money by downloading this thing onto my Kindle.  A $45 paperback is too expensive if the Kindle version is a third that price.  BUT DON'T DO IT!  The tiny screen-shots on the Kindle exacerbate some difficult-to-follow explanations.  Stretch the screen with your fingers and the image pixelates.  As a remedy I plugged the Kindle into my desktop and put the thing up on my computer screen:  Screen-shots weren't that much better but at least they were readable if I squinted and got close to the monitor.  Aside from unreadable Kindle illustrations, the author's approach does not make it easy for greenhorns like myself to grasp the software's overall concept.  I don't believe Mr. Rice is a teacher in the common use of the word, although perhaps he believes he is.  He writes that he is an "e-learner professional" who works for businesses, presumably in the Big Apple.  A room full of businesspeople, a flipchart, and a computer projector doesn't parallel running classes in high schools, colleges, or universities with this thing, week-in and week-out.  There is no frank summary of Blackboard's ins and outs, nor any simplifying diagrams to understand it's architecture.  (Of course, on a Kindle you couldn't see the diagrams anyway.)  With no overview, the author begins "building a practice class," piece-by-piece, little step by little step.  (Early on, from his wording, I thought the practice example was put on a website somewhere and went looking for it--it's not.)  The effect is like getting familiar with a large hall wearing blinders, floor tile by floor tile.  A friend of mine helped when he said "Blackboard is like one of those Russian dolls that fit one inside the other.  Blackboard's parts fit inside other parts, and each has a name or label.  Some of Blackboard is intuitive but a lot of it comes down to just memorizing where and how its dolls are stored."  Now that was helpful.  Instructors I know who use Blackboard don't respect it for its organization or other shortcomings.  So, diagrams would help.  Other acquaintances of mine who like Blackboard have memorized its menus and made peace with its idiosyncrasies.  Keeping in mind one is describing a flawed design would, I think, raise the elucidity level of the text.  But, not really being a teacher, I imagine Mr. Rice is not aware of the mundane.  I'm surprised how highly rated this book is.  Give this "e-learner professional" a "D+."
