Microsoft Word Horizontal Ruler
There is one area in Word where you can quickly set up margins, tab stops, and hanging indents: the horizontal ruler. The horizontal ruler is the bar across the top of your Word document with measurements marked out on it. Many people ignore it and use the various dialog boxes instead. But once you know how to use it, you'll wonder how you ever coped without it.

Introduction to Blackboard
Most people have heard about Blackboard, but do you know what it is? Blackboard is a web content management system. What would you use it for: put your syllabus, class schedule/calendar, and homework on-line, create tests on-line, check for plagiarism, discussion forums, extra storage space for your files, communicate with students, gradebook, and much more!
