SOFTWARE TIP OF THE WEEK

Blackboard Course Copy

Before each semester, Blackboard will create an empty course site for all upcoming courses. You may want to copy your content from an existing course site into one of the new course sites. You must have both course sites in Blackboard before you begin.

Here are the steps:

1. Enter the course site that contains the materials you want to copy
2. Click on Control Panel
3. Click on Course Copy
4. Click on Copy Materials into an Existing Course
5. Click on the Browse button
6. Click on the Select button for the course you want to copy to (You may have to scroll right to see the Select button)
7. Select all areas you want to copy (Do NOT copy enrollments)
8. Click Submit
9. Wait to make changes to the new course site until you receive a email confirming that the copy is complete
