Blackboard To Add Blended Schools Network Resources

Sibling's Blended Schools Network (BSN) has joined the Blackboard Partnerships program to make all of its courses, lessons and units available through Blackboard's teaching and learning environment.

"The delivery of the Blended Schools Network content through Blackboard's teaching and learning environment will help create a complete online education solution for schools," according to a news release. Blackboard will also promote and demo the BSN resources as a result of the partnership.

"As many schools are making the transition to new state standards and blended learning environments, it is incredibly important that there are tools that make the finding, curating and sharing [of] content simple and intuitive," said Mark Belles, senior vice president of K-12 at Blackboard, in a prepared statement. "We couldn't be more excited to expand our longstanding relationship with Blended Schools Network to do just that. Together, we will work to help schools and districts have an even better teaching and learning experience and set students up for success."

More information about BSN is available at blendedschools.net. Go to blackboard.com for more information about Blackboard.
