Journals

Find out how to use Blackboard journals and where to find them.

A journal is:

  • a self-reflective tool to post your opinions and ideas
  • set up by your tutor
  • a personal submission space only available to you and your tutor
  • either graded or used for communication only.

Finding journals

Journals appear in the course content page of your module.

If your tutor adds a due date they will also appear in:

  • the gradebook tab
  • calendar
  • activity stream.
