What
is Blackboard?
Blackboard is an online learning environment that
your instructor customizes to make materials for
your class available on the Web. Instructors may use
Blackboard to post online quizzes, give assignments,
make lecture notes available, record your grades
online, post links to related Web sites, maintain a
course calendar, distribute announcements, and much
more. Blackboard has a number of communication tools
for interacting with your instructor and classmates,
including a discussion board and a live chat
feature, as well as email and file exchange.
What is MyTNCC?
MyTNCC provides a common point of entry to access
Blackboard, Student Email, and academic information
via our Student Information System.

access course materials online?

supports frames and Java, preferably either
Internet Explorer 5.5 or later or Mozilla Foxfire.
