Copying Course Content from Semester to Semester
All courses in the St. Edward's University official Course Catalog
have a Blackboard course created automatically. Courses for the
upcoming semester are loaded into Blackboard 45 days prior to
the first class day.
To re-use materials from semester to semester faculty may use
the Course Copy tool to copy all or some content from one course
to another.
- Log in to Blackboard and access the course which contains
the materials you wish to copy.
- Go to the Control Panel and select Course
Copy from the Course
Options section.
- Select Copy Course Materials into
an Existing Course. Faculty do not have permission to
create new courses. If you need a course created that does not
exist in the official SEU Course Catalog contact Instructional
Computing or the Blackboard System
Administrator.
- Select the Destination Course ID. When you click on Browse and then Search you will see all of the other courses for which
you are an instructor in Blackboard. You may only copy content
to a course for which you are listed as the instructor.
- Select the course you want to copy content into by clicking
on the Select button to the right of the course name. You may
need to make the search window larger to see the Select button.
- Select Content to be copied. If you are copying blogs or wikis please see material related to Copying Blogs/Wikis.
- Do NOT copy enrollment.
- Click on Submit to begin the copy process.
If you have problems with this process please contact the System
Administrator. |
