New Name Pronunciation Features in Blackboard

Beginning July 7th, Blackboard has enabled name pronunciation features. This enables users to add text guidance and an audio recording of their name to Blackboard. Users will be able to see and listen to your pronunciation when they click your profile picture.

Please see the video demonstration for more information.

Faculty and Staff can send any questions to BlackboardHelp@uams.edu

Students can send questions to the Help Desk at HelpDesk@uams.edu.

Sincerely,

The eLearning Team
