How do I navigate inside a Blackboard Ultra course

Open

Navigation bar: Open frequently used tools in one step. Select the Content, Calendar, Announcements, Discussions, Gradebook, and Messages tabs to easily access those tools. 

Course content: All of your course content appears in the main part of the page. When you select a folder or learning module, it will expand to display the content nested in that folder or learning module. When you select an item such as an assignment, document, or link, the content slides out in a panel on top of the Course Content page.

New activity: An activity icon, which resembles a blue speech bubble, appears when new activity occurs in a course conversation for assignments, tests, and documents. The activity icon also appears to indicate new discussions.

Details & Actions Menu: View course information and tools with these options:

• Roster: Access basic profile cards and match faces to names. All course members appear in the roster. You can't remove yourself.

• Progress Tracking: allows you to see your course progress relating to your course content, assignments, and tests.

• Attendance: If your instructor uses the attendance feature, you can access your records.

• Groups: View or join course groups your instructor has created, if applicable.

• Books & Tools: Displays tools available in your course and your institution, if applicable.
