We are proposing some changes to the Blackbaord login selection page. This is the page that you use to select either the CaneID or the Blackboard login page. Before implementing them we wanted to run the changes by you to see if you have any problems with them. The first two are fairly minor, but we specifically want to know how the third change might affect your use of. Please let us know if any of these will have an affect on how you use Blackboard.
You can see images of the current and proposed login selection pages at http://goo.gl/S09LY
These are the changes being proposed:
1. You can press ENTER/RETURN to use your CaneID username and password. (Since that is what most people do, it should speed up the process of logging in.)
2. The text has been changed to, hopefully, make the options clearer ("Login with" instead of "I have a ") and to direct people to the CaneID login page (larger text and bold text style on the primary path).
3. The "Guest login" option has been removed. (Everyone accessing the Blackboard system will need to login.)
If any of these will (negatively) impact your use of Blackboard, please let us know.
No change will take place until after finals, but we need to get things scheduled now.
Thank you,
