Copy course
Blackboard provides a tool that allows you to copy an entire course from a previous semester to the new semester. This method allows you to select which areas of your old course (e.g. all of Course Information, all of Course Documents, etc.) will be copied into the new course. If you wish to only copy a single piece of material (e.g. a content item, a folder and its contents), locate the material in the appropriate content area and use the Copy option from the contextual menu for the item.
1. Log into Blackboard and then click on the name of course that you want to copy material FROM (the old course).
2. From the Control Panel within the course, click on Packages and Utilities then Course Copy.
3. In the "Select Copy Type" section, confirm that "Copy Course Materials into an Existing Course" is selected.
4. Complete the "Select Copy Options" section.
4.1. Click Browse.
4.2. Click to the left of the course you are copying content INTO.
4.3. Click Submit.
5. Under "Select Course Materials," select the course content that you'd like copied into the new course. You can click "Select All" if you'd like everything in the course copied.
NOTE: If you are copying any items associated with grading (e.g. exams, surveys, assignments, SafeAssignments, graded Discussion Boards, etc.) you must select Grade Center Columns and Settings.
6. Under the File Attachments section, leave the Course Files option set to "Copy links and copies of the content (include entire course home folder)."
7. Click Submit at the top right or bottom right.
8. Toward the top of the page, you will receive a message that the course copy has been put in the queue. You will receive an email when the copy is completed.
