Blackboard and eLearning

The Center for eLearning supports development of high quality online and blended programs and courses at Cleveland State University that expand opportunities for students to meet their educational goals. Classes that are offered online are run through the Blackboard system. Some classes may be completely run through Blackboard, while other classes offer the combined option in which there are face to face meetings along with assignments and interaction on Blackboard.
