In order for students to be automatically enrolled on a Class Notebook space that you are using as part of your teaching, they MUST access it via a Class Notebook link in the associated Blackboard module shell.
Only those students who have clicked on the link in Blackboard will be able to see the Class Notebook space.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The Class Notebook space MUST be setup by the instructor using the Class Notebook tool in Blackboard in order for the automated enrolment to occur. Class Notebook spaces that have been setup outside of Blackboard will require students to be added manually by the instructor.
