DOD [Department of Defense] buys Blackboard technology
While the size of the contract — $400,000 over three years — is relatively small, students around the world will feel its scope. Blackboard will provide its Blackboard Learning System and Blackboard Portal System to the Department of Defense Educational Activity (DODEA), which runs the Department of Defense Dependents’ School (DODDS) system. The system will allow students to maintain their studies regardless of where their military parent is transferred.
