Answer:

Please bring this to the attention of your lecturer. The lecturer and his/her team would have adjusted the settings for the Blackboard room/area. These settings covers a wide range of issues including visibility of the room and access to recordings.

Answer:

Our current version is not compatible with it at the moment. Once there have been changes along this line we will be sure to inform the campus community.

Please however be informed that the OurVLE page is mobile ready and adjusts for easy readability on mobile devices.

Answer:

Whilst we are sorry to hear of the challenges experienced whilst doing your examinations we kindly ask that you inform your lecturers as soon as possible. It would be up to them to determine the next course of action as we are not in a position to offer a resit.

Once properly registered for the course on SAS you should have access to the course container after 40 minutes has passed on OurVLE. 

Question:

Answer:

We would suggest the following;

  1. Check your registration profile on SAS to see if the stream was cancelled.
  2. Check your registration profile to see if you registered for the main class/stream. Some students inadvertently register for the tutorial session alon without registering for the main teaching stream.
Question:

I have requested an override for a course but I am still not seeing it on OurVLE.

Answer:

Please keep checking your registration profile on SAS. Sometimes your department will leave notes on your registration page informing you why you cannot be granted the override at this time.

Answer:
The content of your course containers is managed by your lecturers. If you believe that you should be seeing more content please reach out to them for advice. Please also bear in mind that they may be updating the container or getting ready to share content with you in a phased basis.
