Embed an RSS Feed Into Blackboard

Blackboard still doesn’t have a way to directly post an RSS feed. Don’t worry. Andy Rush has come to our rescue with a great screen-cast explaining how to do it:

Ingredients

- Computer with access to the Internet

- Instructor access to a Blackboard course (the screencast features BB Enterprise 8 )

- The website at http://feed2js.org

- A website with an active RSS feed to be used in Blackboard

Directions

  1. Navigate to the website that has an RSS feed.
  2. Look for an icon on the page that looks like this:
  3. If you don’t see that icon, look for some text that mentions “subscribe to feed” or “RSS“. Linked text that reads “Entries (RSS)” is a common way the feed for a WordPress blog is encountered, usually near the bottom of the screen.
  4. You can right-click on the icon or text link and choose either Copy Link Location (Firefox), or Copy Shortcut (Internet Explorer).
  5. Alternatively, you can click on the icon or the text and it should lead you to a page with a few options to subscribe to the RSS feed. What’s important is that the feed URL is now in the web browser’s address bar. Copy the URL so that you can paste it into the appropriate field in the Feed2JS website.
  6. Navigate to the Feed2JS website.
  7. Click on the tab labeled “Build” and paste the RSS feed URL into the box labeled URL.
  8. Optionally, you can change the options for how the feed is displayed.
  9. Click on the button labeled “Generate Javascript”
  10. This will display code in the field labeled “Get Your Code Here”
  11. Copy the entire contents of this field. This is the code we’ll place in Blackboard.
  12. Navigate to the area in your Blackboard course where you would like to place the RSS information.
  13. Click on the Add (+) Item button to create a new content item.
  14. Provide a name for the content item (required)
  15. In the Text editor click on the “Toggle HTML Source Mode” button
  16. Paste the code generated from the Feed2JS website into the text field (overwrite any existing text that’s in that field to start)
  17. Click on the Submit button

    I have tried this method with Blackboard 8 but the embedded feed does not update iteself.

    When I ‘modify’ that item and look at the source code, the javascript has gone and has been replaced by the actual text of the feed itself.

    This is suggesting to me at his point that this approach just takes a snapshot of the feed at a given point. It’s not a dynamic feed into the Blackboard course.

    всем здрасти. меня всегда интересовала хорошая прибыль. люблю деньги, но вот работа на которой я работал давала тупо на сигареты и на пиво , немного погулять с друзьями студентами. я с детства верю в магию и все такое. в ин6тернете увидел рекламу мага александра Цынь – обратился, обряд конечно меня конкретно разорил, НО ВОТ ЭФФЕКТ меня поразил до глубины. теперь я работаю на высокооплачеваемой работе, знаете, про такие места говорят – что только по блату ……………. – я свой блат получил у Александра —-=
