Once you have logged in, simply look for the course identification number, which is History 1113_ followed by the section numbers for the semester or Hist1123_ followed by the section numbers for the semester (the dicussion board combines all sections of a given semester into one virtual classroom) under MY COURSES and click on the hypertext there. Once you’re into the course itself, click the Communication button and then the Discussion Board button, which will take you to one of the following hypertext phrases: Early World Coffee Klatsch or Modern World Coffee Klatsch. Click on that hypertext and you will be in the discussion board. Then you can either choose to reply to an ongoing thread or reply to an existing one, using the Add New Thread or Reply options.
To access the discussion board for the class you need to login to Blackboard. The address for this at CU is:
http://blackboard.cameron.edu . Once you reach the CU Blackboard page you need to login using the following rubric:
username: fl###### (first letter of first name, first letter of last name, student ID number).
password: fl#####(first letter of first name, first letter of last name, last 5 numbers of your Social Security Number).
For Example:

Your user ID would be: jc123456
John S. Compute, Student ID#: 123456, SSN#: 987-65-4321
Your password would be: jc54321
