• Using the New Search Tool in Blackboard Ultra

    Have you ever struggled to find something in Blackboard? Perhaps you’ve read a document once but can’t remember where it is stored. The new Search feature could help you and it will be available in Ultra courses from Friday 7 April 2023.

    The Search tool can help you to search for:

    • Folder titles
    • Document pages
    • Files
    • Tests

    And over the next few months, Blackboard plan to update the Search tool further to allow you to search through item descriptions too. Note that it doesn’t currently find anything within items, for example Document page content and files stored on those pages.

    We hope you find this update useful and you can watch the short video guide below for a preview of the Search tool in action:
