i thought about that, but theres isnt much on blackboard that can be fiddled with. Unless, the person desperately wants welcome notes and lecture and tute notes from other units of study :p

if they know the unikey password, this is a quite risky cos unikey includes enrolment details and other information that is highly important. If anyone messes around with it (not saying people definately WILL but IF they do), you don't really have a case and the complications could be huge.

also, ur unikey is also ur key to the credit u have in uni account... not that u need to use it or any thing...

btw, knowin someone else's Bb username and pswd gives u the power of makin him/her hated....

how does knowing someone's BB pswword and username give you the power to make them hated? BB doesnt have links to email, enrolment or anything...just tutes and lec ntoes isnt it?

last yr at Bb in accounting, i firmly recall some dude launching a series of insult against soem gal in the Bb discussion forum... (one section may have ur post id as anonymous) in the post, it says taht thsi gal was such a bitch etc critising everyone at the eco forum, sayin how every one's inferior sorta thing... and much to my surprize, quite a few anoyomous reply confirmed the claim... and oen of them was quite credible among the acct disscusion forum (who forgot to tick 'anonymous' box)

some units allow a discussion board as alot of questions are required for that particular subject. biology for instance regularly posts updates and people often ask questions relating to it or to assessments and it is the unit coordinators, that their own discretion, that reply to help out students. this is avaliable on webCT.

either your subject doesn't have any use for webCT and doesn't place their course up, or they haven't got anything to post up yet, or you've made recent changes to your course and it has yet to be accepted by administration. re-check tomorrow or most likely sometime on monday. if there isn't anything up ask other student doing your course whether it is avaliable on their account. if it is and still not for you, you'll have to speak with ther unit coordinator.
