Channel modules stream content from an outside source into a Blackboard Portal System module. The module content is updated at intervals. Blackboard Portal System provides a means for institutions to incorporate content from channel providers but Blackboard Portal System does not provide the channels themselves.
To add a channel to Blackboard, contact a channel provider. Channels are presented to users through Channel Modules and administered through the Manage Channels feature.
Follow these steps to open the Modify Module page for a Channel Module.
Step 1 Click Manage Modules from the Portal Areas section of the System Control Panel.
Step 2 Click Contents for a Channel Module that appears in the list. The Modify Module page will appear with the Channel Module page view loaded.
Select a channel from the drop-down list.
