Online Study Resources at Newcastle University

Online study facilitiesMany of our courses use additional online resources to support and enhance your study experience.

Blackboard is the University's virtual learning environment. It is a secure web-based system that enables you to:

  • access module support information
  • access learning materials, such as reading lists and case studies
  • submit work online and take part in online discussions
  • link to further information, such as websites and online journals
  • contact academic tutors and students on your programme

Lecture recording system

We have installed a lecture recording system called Recap in a number of lecture rooms on campus. This allows audio and visual materials from lectures to be recorded and published online.

This means you can revisit previous lectures, review challenging topics and use downloadable material to support your examination preparation.
