Your E-LLM Online Experience
Basic Blackboard Usage
- As an E-LLM student, you register for courses like all other NYU students. Once registered, you will need to activate your NYU NetID and set your password. Detailed information on this process can be found here.
- You can then access all NYU student on-line services through
the NYUHome Portal. You login below using your NetID and password:
- Once you log in, you can see a variety of offerings:
- By selecting the Academics tab, you can view links your registered
E-LLM courses, just like any other NYU student:
- Once you select the link for the course you wish to view, the
E-LLM course launches in a new window:
- The left hand navigation bar will take you to whichever area of
the course you wish to view. Above, we are looking at a typical
Announcements page, but you may also typically view your assignments,
course documents, course Discussion Board(s), et cetera.
Course discussion boards are sometimes the main way a Professor
communicates with the students enrolled in the course and how the
students communicate with one another. The advantage of this method
is that students benefit from questions that they ask of Professors
and the answers thereto, rather than individual emails, phone calls
or conversations. This also helps ensure that students all have
access to the same information when the time for the final exam
comes around at the end of the semester:
Class videos
- Student view class videos by clicking on the 'Video Archive' button
on the left hand nav bar:
- Students select the link for the class video they wish to watch
and the following screen will appear:
- When the student selects 'Play' above, a customized window is
launched which can play the entire video from start to end.
- Students may also select 'Chapters' on the video window and choose
the particular portion of the video they wish to view:
- If you encounter technical problems as an E-LLM Student, we are always here to help. If you need help, we have an online support team in place that is ready to help you.
- Please refer to our requirements at http://www.law.nyu.edu/technology/onlinerequirementsnewclass.html
to make sure that you are using the appropriate browser and media playing software for classes being recorded in a given semester.
