A course developed by Nita Copeland, an instructor in the UALR Department of Health Sciences, has been named a 2012 Blackboard Exemplary Course.

“Nita joins a select group of faculty and course designers from around the world whose courses have earned the designation,” said Dr. Donna Quimby, chair and associate professor of Health Science. The course is HSCI 3402, Structural Kinesiology.

Blackboard Learning System is a Web-based server software platform used by UALR in traditional classroom settings as well as distance learning where students and professors can interact, post articles, take tests, and hold discussions all online.
