This case study details the implementation of Blackboard Learn Ultra at PXL University of Applied Sciences and Arts, a four-year public institution located in Hasselt, Belgium. The university adopted a mixed-learning model that integrates on-campus, online, and professional field learning to enhance educational outcomes. The implementation began in 2022 with a goal to fully transition to Learn Ultra by September 1, 2023. The Information Communication Technology in Education (ICTE) team, consisting of 20 members, supported this ambitious timeline through 15 pilot implementations. The case study outlines the challenges faced, such as ensuring seamless access across different learning modalities and allowing faculty to focus on teaching rather than navigating the LMS. Feedback from faculty highlighted the advantages of a standardized interface that enhances the learning experience. The university aims to provide every course in a format that allows learners to choose their preferred learning method, thereby achieving their educational objectives.
