Regroup Integrates With Blackboard Learn to Add Unlimited Text Message Functionality

Regroup integration allows Blackboard Learn users to add functionality and send notifications to user groups by text message as well as sending announcements and emails from a single user friendly launch window.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 
PRLog (Press Release) - Sep. 11, 2012 - San Francisco, CA.- Regroup is pleased to announce that its text messaging feature can now be integrated with Blackboard Learn (BL). BL users can add Regroup’s texting facility to their system allowing messages to be sent from within BL using Regroup’s user friendly interface. BL in its standard form only allows communications to be sent through announcements and emails. The new functionality provided by Regroup allows unlimited text messages to be sent using a simplified form of Regroup’s industry leading and very easy to use notification software and also includes the existing BL email and announcements facility within the same single message launch screen.

Regroup’s experience as the industry leading, mass and emergency notification provider has been harnessed to create this additional functionality and it benefits from all the development work put into making our notification systems the best and easiest to use. BL users can utilize Regroup to send notifications (including group related emergency messages such as “class cancelled tomorrow”) with confidence that the message will reach any student with a working cell phone or email address.

Blackboard Learn was originally launched in 1998 and has since become one of the industry leaders in learning management software. BL comprises four basic modules with additional facilities that can be added to increase functionality. The four modules consist of, a learning system provides online course delivery and management for institutions; a community and portal system for use in creating online campus communities; a content management system for centralized control over course content; and a system to record and analyze student assessment results.

Though Blackboard’s Learn software is proprietary, developers are able to extend the functionality of the system, and create customized course management and delivery by developing software and applications known as Building Blocks. Building Blocks allows third-party developers to create customizations and extensions for Blackboard Learn through open APIs and web services.  BL have a deep knowledge of the education industry and provides a well-supported, expandable tool to help teachers and students manage their courses.

Regroup’s text messaging integration with Blackboard Learn brings together the industry leaders in learning management software and mass/emergency notification systems to provide a cost-effective and flexible method of quickly and reliably contacting users.
