Learning Objectives No one wants to spend half an hour taking a test just to get kicked out at the last minute. Students who take advantage of these instructions are far less likely face that problem! 1.
Access Blackboard directly: http://bb.wpunj.edu WPConnect is a great tool, but we always encourage students and faculty to use the direct approach when accessing Bb.
2.
Please be advised that using unsupported browsers can result in Blackboard not functioning properly. The best browser to use with Blackboard is Google Chrome. This link is good for both MS and Mac computers https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/browser/

“Helpful” software Check and make sure that you are not running any popup- blocking or javascriptblocking software or toolbars. These include such programs as the toolbars from Yahoo, Google, MSN, Optimum Online, et al., along with such security software as McAfee Security Center and others.
4.
Students who have been kicked out of an exam need to contact their instructor to ask that their exam attempt be cleared. Instructors have the choice of granting permission or refusing it. Students can contact Bb Support, but we are not in a position to make grading decisions.
