In our basic version there is a file exchange facility in the Group
Pages. If you set up a group (you can put everyone in it if necessary)
you can then give them the file exchange option. This works like the
digital drop box, but in this case the file is available to all group
members. It's a bit tucked away but they'll soon learn where it is, if
it works.

Subject: Facilities for Students Builiding Up lists of useful learning
URLs
On behalf of a colleague - Are there any facilities that anyone can
point me to either in current or planned versions of Blackboard (could
be a building block) whereby students can e.g. edit a document and so
build up lists / details of bookmarked URLs relevant to their course and
then share with their peers? Obviously there is the Discussion Board
but what we ideally want is a way the could add to e.g. a document which
is already in the course but without being given instructor admin
rights?
