Welcome to Blackboard Campus Edition 8

Old WebCT 4.1 has been decommissioned.

Using the course management system, you can offer your entire course virtually (click here to learn more about fully online course offering procedures), or you can use the features of the course management systems to host your course partially. For example, instructors can offer exams, quizzes, assignments, syllabus in conjunction with their class room environment.

WebCT 4.1 system will no longer host courses, but instructors can still login to the system to export courses, look at old materials etc.

WebCT 4.1 system will be completely shutdown at the end of year 2009.

Blackboard Campus Edition 8 (WebCT CE8)

Blackboard CE8 system is now Kean's latest and production course delivery system for distance learning education. Besides the regular features, the new CE8 system offers the following:

Single Sign On Login

All users (course instructors and students) will now log in to the CE8 system using their KEANGoogle email ID and password. This means if a user changes his/her email password, they have to use the new password to get in to CE8.

Support on Single Sign On Login

The CE8 system uses KEANGoogle email and passwod and if a user can not login to CE8 system, it means the KEANGoogle email credential used is incorrect and the user must call OCIS Helpdesk Hotline at 908-737-6000 for an email password reset.
