How to register and log-into the Blackboard (FU Berlin e-learning)

It seems that the most difficult operation for a new student at Freie Universität Berlin is to log-into the Learning Management System, the so called Blackboard.

Actually, it is quite tricky. Here what you have to do:

1. Go to https://lms.fu-berlin.de
2. Click on "Selbstregistrierung", in the left column
3. Click on "Selbstregistrierung für Studierende, Alumni und Gasthörer" - or directly go here.
4. Enter your ZEDAT access data, flag the two boxes and click on "Registrieren" - If you don't have any ZEDAT account, probably you're not enrolled yet; in this case, see How to enroll.
5. The system will show you your data. If everything is OK, click once again on "Registrieren".
6. Now, go to the Blackboard home and log-in with your access data!

Once you logged into the Blackboard, you can find your courses with the search engine at the top left of the page.
