Blackboard (Bb) Collaborate is a web conferencing tool that is accessible in all UMBC Bb courses under the tools menu. Bb Collaborate allows instructors and students to meet virtually, anytime and anywhere. Instructors can supplement in-class dialogue by offering virtual office hours or review sessions to answer questions students have regarding course content. Bb Collaborate has many interactive features, including chat, video conferencing, whiteboard, and screen sharing. Students can access a collaborate session from their computers or mobile devices.
