Blackboard: Create a Blank Page

The Blank Page tool allows you to create a text document which displays like a webpage to students. In the blank pages you can add images, tables, text, hyper-links, Mashups, attachments and more. When you add a blank page to a content area, only the link is displayed, which students will click to view the document you have created.
