Person 1 (00:00):
Editing the Contact Professor page and Understanding Dash board. First, in the yellow banner on the right, click on Exit Pre view, then on Continue to return to the instructor view of the course. In the course's banner on the right, make sure that the Edit Mode switch is set to On. Let's start editing the Contact Professor link. Click on it and fill out your profile on the Create Contact page. Next, click on the Dashboard link. The area is formatted as a module page, just like the Blackboard homepage. In the action bar, click on Add Course Module to see which modules you can display here. The default dashboard page includes only three modules: My Announcements, What's New, which displays newly posted items in your course, and To Do, which shows due dates for learning activities and assignments provided as you set them. Use the hidden drag and drop icon to the left of the module's names to rearrange them.
