Old Navigation (Left) vs Ultra Base Navigation (Right)
When?
May 16th at 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM, UAMS Blackboard will upgrade to a new navigation experience.
What does this mean for me?
- Your courses will not change. They will look and operate exactly as they do now
- Starting May 16th at 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM you will see a refined user navigation experience. (The MyCourse, MyCommunities, Library, Student Success, Classroom Schedule, and Help tabs will be replaced with a new navigation interface).
- There may be a brief period where you cannot log in during the update
How will this enhance efficiency and experience?
- Modern, intuitive user experience. Simple, intuitive, and engaging user experience.
- Works well on mobile devices. This navigation is designed to work well regardless of which device you’re using.
- Aggregates important information. All your course and organization information – like calendar, messages, and grades – is now consolidated into one global view, minimizing the time spent navigating into each course.
- Only one click away. See something that needs your attention? Just click on it and you will be taken directly there, minimizing clicks and saving time.
