Blackboard is being replaced with a new online environment.

We invite you to be a part of the change and help us to name this new online space.

Enter our naming competition and you could win £100 in Amazon vouchers.

This new online environment will be a lot more than Blackboard – it will be a place to:

  • Learn - course information, lecture recordings, readings, learning materials…
  • Share - new tools for group work, communicating, online CVs….
  • Network – create your own profile, start your own groups, make new contacts

We’re looking for a name that sounds great and reflects what we stand for at Queen Mary. So if you have an idea for a name (or more than one) we would love to hear from you.

Competition Guidelines:
(See Terms and Conditions below)

  1. Enter your idea in the form below by midnight of the 23rd of January 2012.
  2. We will then create a shortlist of the best entries and post a poll for a vote in February.
  3. The winner will receive £100 of Amazon vouchers.

    I have suggested four names on the one form. Is this OK?

    regards
