Abstract
Creating, delivering and evaluating pilot course in two countries and at two universities via Blackboard 6 presents pedagogical, cultural and technological challenges as well as many rewards. The developmental process and negotiations required by both universities to bring the course to fruition are explored including faculty workload, interactivity requirements connected to the course and credit assignment. The concepts of community building and cultural awareness are explored from faculty and students perspectives. Evaluation by the students and next steps from the developers' perspectives are important components supporting the efficacy of this approach.
