Blackboard updates
The semester is looming, and from the beginning of January I’m mostly busy with education. I have just updated Blackboard pages for all my courses: Advanced Statistical Mechanics, Fairy Tales of Theoretical Physics and Quantum Transport.
For those who does not know: Blackboard is a Web-based educational framework used at our University. It is not completely senseless: one can store all study material and interact with students in a rather convenient fashion. However, a rather irritating aspect is that its interface changes from year to year to become more complex and inconvenient to use. Sofware has its own evolution, even less contollable or rational than the evolution of biological systems.

It has both advantages as well as disadvantages. But interface changes from year to year are becoming more complex and inconvenient to use.
