Blackboard Building Block (LMS Integration)

Dear friends,

After a lot of hard work, Digication is extremely excited to officially announce our brand new Blackboard Building Block for customers using Blackboard as their LMS! 

The new Building Block will allow for Digication to be added to any course as a tool for use, allowing faculty to:

  • Create ePortfolios
  • Create ePortfolio course templates
  • Create ePortfolio submission assignments (assignments will be created in both Blackboard and Digication)
  • Grade support (one-way), allowing grades on Digication assignments to update the grades on Blackboard
  • And view student work all from within the Blackboard course itself!

From an administrative standpoint, the building block affords all of the following:

  • Single sign on capability.
  • The auto-creation of new users within Digication upon accessing the Digication dashboard within a course.
  • A one-way sync to import rosters automatically from blackboard to Digication periodically.

Campuses who use Blackboard and are eager to get started with our new Building Block should send their Blackboard administrators to the link below for step by step installation instructions.

Installing and Configuring the Blackboard Building Block

Once the building block is installed successfully, faculty or course administrators will also need to enable Digication for a course in Blackboard before it can be used. Please find instructions for how to do so below.

Enabling Digication for a Blackboard Course

After the tool is enabled for use within a course, the following guide will help you understand the functionalities of the tool within Blackboard.
