The course copy tool allows you to copy content from one existing UA Blackboard course to another. This can help you get a head-start on setting up a course you’ve taught before, or reuse content. You can also copy content to other instructor’s courses if you are enrolled in the course, which can be helpful in teaching courses with the same curriculum.

Instructions

Navigate to the Blackboard course that has the content you want to copy.

  1. On the bottom-left menu, click Packages and Utilities. Then click Course Copy.

  2. In the Select Copy Options section, click the Browse button.

  3. Select the destination course from the popup window. You can sort the list by clicking the headings at the top. Click the Submit button at the bottom when done.

  4. Click Select All to copy all existing Content Areas to the destination course, or check each content area, depending on what you want to copy.

  5. Do NOT check the box in the Enrollments section.

    • Checking this box would copy all students and others enrolled in the course. Users added to a course by accident must be removed by the CIT Admin Team.

  6. Click Submit to begin the course copy process.

The course copy process can take several minutes to complete.

When the course is copied successfully, you will receive an email notification and a success message in the destination course. Confirm that your content has copied correctly.
