h3. Macros
[BBDN:Template variables] can be used to display dynamic content directly within content areas of a course - such as to display a student's name or a course title.

h3. Mashups
Mashups provide a way to hook into the Visual Text Box Editor to embed content from around the web directly inside of course content. Examples of mashups include the YouTube, Slideshare, and Flickr mashups that ship with the core product.

{info}
Blackboard has contributed an open source [mashup|http://projects.oscelot.org/gf/project/bb_wordpaste/] to OSCELOT that allows instructors to cleanly past text from Microsoft Word into Blackboard without losing its formatting.
