Online Access Instructions
How to Access Videos
As a distance student, you will have access to your IE courses through Blackboard. Once you register for your web-based classes, you will have access to the syllabus, notes, assignments, and video lectures through your Blackboard course. To log into Blackboard, you will use your netID and password (This is the same username and password that you use to log onto the MyMav system).
To view videos in Blackboard, click on the ClassRev Records link on the left-hand navigation. From there, you will be able to access your videos by the date of the recording. Please note that it may take several hours after the end of classtime to process and upload the video to Blackboard. Videos will no longer be available through the College of Engineering Distance website. You will only be able to access it through your Blackboard course.
Please Note: If you are enrolled in section 002 or 003 of a course on MyMav, your Blackboard course might appear as section 001. The sections are merged together on Blackboard for ease of maintenance for the professor and staff. You do not need to be concerned about your Blackboard section as long as your MyMav account reflects that you are enrolled in the correct course and section. If your class is cross-listed with an undergraduate course, your Blackboard class will reflect the course number of the undergraduate course.
Troubleshooting
Some Internet Service Providers might be filtering the video, or if you are trying to access the videos from your workplace, your company might be filtering it. You might try downloading and installing a VPN, which will give you a secure virtual "tunnel" to UTA. It should help if you're having problems accessing the videos off campus. Download the VPN client for your platform and follow the instructions on how to install it and configure it. Once you have it set up, you will have to let the VPN run in the background while you try to access the videos.
If you have forgotten your NetID or password, you will need to contact OIT or visit https://webapps.uta.edu/oit/selfservice/noauth/changepw.php to reset your password.
