KB on Blackboard Collaborate, etc. (See note in description on how to set up your own Collaborate session)

Note: Many students who are taking classes have been logging in to Blackboard Collaborate sessions through Canvas, but people might not be aware they can also set up their own sessions. Everyone with a NetID (including grad students and undergrads) should have ability to set up their own Blackboard Collaborate or Webex session through my.wisc.edu. Login to that site and search "web conferencing". You should see both Blackboard Collaborate and Webex which you can then add to your dashboard. These are helpful tools for collaborating or socializing with one another. Blackboard Collaborate has the advantage over Zoom and Slack that it has a whiteboard where people can write/draw, which is especially useful with a tablet and stylus.
