Blackboard Learn is the official learning management system (LMS) at Buffalo State College that allows for dynamic learning to occur in the online environment. The tools provided by Blackboard Learn allow students and faculty to post and share documents and other course content, gain 24/7 access to grades, send e-mail, post to discussion boards, and conduct synchronous or real-time conversations in a virtual classroom.
