Comments on Blackboard Collaborate
“During the lockdown, I used Blackboard Collaborate to teach Dutch. It was great that I could make small groups, so students could practice speaking the language. Also, by sending polls it was easier to involve all students.” Kirsten, Dutch Language Teacher, Netherlands, 2020
