Abstract:
The Blackboard Ultra® e-learnig interface for communication and class development of a learning unit corresponding to the civil engineering educational program is described. In this article we describe the procedure for structuring a course using an instructional design in which the course content is developed by topic and subtopic using a unit of content. In each subtopic the what, how, for what and by what values ​​the student will develop each of their activities is described. Interaction with the teacher and student is shown through synchronous communication with Blackboard Collaborate®, links are established with other digital tools such as You Tube®, Screencast-O-Matic®, Google® Drive, for asynchronous communication.

Communication and significant learning results, monitoring of activities and assigning a final value to the evaluation are evident. The use of this platform has been useful because it is a tool that has all the necessary components for the development of the course and assessment of student performance.
