Blackboard listens to users suggestions for new features in the product. Periodically, Blackboard opens idea sets for voting. Recently, Blackboard opened voting on a set of features being considered for the October 2017 release of Blackboard Learn.

Announcement: Voting for Learn product ideas is now open!

created by Marissa Dimino in Blackboard Community

We have opened a set of ideas for voting! To view the list of ideas and cast your vote, select “Vote Now” in the Blackboard Idea Exchange. These ideas are focused on the Original Experience (Learn 9.1 for Self and Managed Hosted or SaaS) and were selected based on community views, comments, and our own backlog of ideas we are considering for the Q4 2017 release. Voting will be open for at least two weeks. After voting closes, we will choose a small number of ideas for detailed follow-up with our Designers, Product Managers, and you, the community! 

Announcement expires on April 6, 2017

In addition to voting on ideas for possible inclusion in the October 2017 release, you can also suggest new features for consideration for future releases.

Make your voice heard, vote for the features that matter most to you.
