newsmodulenewsmoduleThe NewsModule allows users to edit and display news items on a custom tab in a more visually appealing way than what Blackboard currently offers. Typically, a news item has a title, a link text, a text, and a picture. News items are grouped into news lists that are displayed through a tab module. A News Editor is a user in charge of one or several news lists. The news editor can create/edit/delete news items, and add/remove them to his news list. The news module displays the link text of the first few items in the list, along with a thumbnail of the attached picture. These links use ajax to call a larger version of the picture and the first paragraphs of the news item... The other news items in the list are presented at the bottom of the module as a simple list of links... The tool currently exists as a "classic asp" application, and works well. The project is to re-write that tool as a Blackboard building block.
