Blackboard replaces TeleTOP

From the coming academic year, Blackboard will be the new electronic learning environment at the University of Twente. Blackboard replaces TeleTOP and has the major advantage of being more compatible with the university’s other teaching systems, thereby facilitating interfaces and links in the future. This spring we ran a pilot project involving students and teaching staff. It showed Blackboard to be a user-friendly, easy-to-learn system.


The subjects for the academic year 2008-2009 will remain in TeleTOP for the coming academic year. They can still be accessed so that students resitting exams can consult information they might need from the previous year.
