Managing Your Course

Managing Your Course

Each semester, refer to this list to manage primary functions within your course.

Upload Syllabus/Files

Uploading your syllabus is essentially the same steps as uploading any files within Blackboard. Learn to upload your syllabus and manage other files within your course or the My Files directory.

Course Duplication

Rather than uploading new files and creating new assignments and  each semester, Blackboard allows you to duplicate materials and Blackboard course structure (blogs, discussions, tests,) from one course shell to another. You can transfer a course from one semester to the next, or transfer one course into multiple sections. There are two methods for moving materials: Course Copy or Export/Import.

Make Your Course Available

You may make your course available to students up to one week prior to the official start date of the session.

Section Merge

If you would like to combine multiple sections into one course shell, you will need to request a Section Merge.
