 What
equipment and skills do I need?
- A Pentium PC running Windows 95 or
higher OR a Macintosh running system 7.5 or higher, with a minimum of
64MB RAM (recommended)
- Access to the Internet through a network
connection or an Internet Service Provider, with a 56K modem or better
(recommended).
- A Web browser, either Microsoft Internet
Explorer 4.0 or higher or Netscape Navigator 4.03 or higher. Microsoft
Internet Explorer 5.0 or higher is recommended.
NOTE: If you don’t have the items
described above at home, you can use a computer in an on-campus lab.
- An e-mail account and the ability to
send and receive e-mail and e-mail file attachments. A personal
account, rather than a shared account, is recommended.
- The ability to use a browser to navigate
the Web; the ability to navigate among multiple open windows; and the
ability to open, close, and save files and attachments.
- A Blackboard User Account. If you
register for a course that uses Blackboard, a BSU Blackboard
Administrator will automatically create your account. Your username
will be your full BSU student ID number (not your BroncoWeb
login ID). Your password will either be your student ID number (if
you’re a first-time Blackboard user) or your Blackboard password
from a previous semester.
- Any additional requirements as specified
by the course instructor, such as access to Microsoft Word, Excel,
PowerPoint, Acrobat Reader, Real Player, or other specialized hardware
or software.
