- Unpack the "teaching and learning" purpose to identify a range of "edge cases" and whether they are allowed in or not.
- What types of "organisations" are there already? Any faculties? Schools?
- Do you map courses to these organisations? Or how else do they "connect" with students in the tool?
- Can staff push one notification to two courses?
- If so, does the notifications engine consolidate the duplicate notifications (i.e. two instances of exactly the same notification going to the same person)
- Following on from #2 and #3, could a school administrator use a school organisation to push notifications to all students doing any course in the school on something like a summer intern ship opportunity?
- Does Blackboard currently do anything with the subject value it gets from Banner (the first four (alpha) characters it gets from Banner)?
- Explore how Blackboard (or the staff using it) could benefit from the COO API
- How easy would it be for each course, when created, to have the script create the appropriate structured url to access the course outline online?
- Is it possible for ex-current students to use blackboard? For instance, keeping in contact with people who have graduated? Or allowing public users to create accounts and register interest in courses/faculties?
