* I taught a course several years ago and it is no longer available on Blackboard. Can you make it available?

We cannot make old courses available if they are no longer on Blackboard, but we can copy the course into your Sandbox course or your course for the current semester. 

To request a course copy, please fill out the following form:  http://www.hartford.edu/academics/faculty/fcld/learn_blackboard/course_requests/Course_Copy_Request_Form.aspx  Be sure to provide the CRN of the old course, as this helps us to locate the archive in our files.

* I copied material into my course, and when I click on it, nothing is there.


Blackboard creates duplicate buttons when it copies a course.  Check the bottom of your course menu for another button with the same name – this is usually where the content is located.  To delete extra buttons, click on the chevron next to the name of the button and select Delete.



The course copy process takes time, especially if you have a lot of content to copy.  You will receive a confirmation email when the course has copied.  Please do not add any content or try to copy again until you receive the confirmation email.

* Can I copy a colleague's course materials into my course?


If you would like access to a colleague’s course material, ask your colleague to add you as an instructor in the course.  You will then be able to copy the material forward into your own course.

Please note that FCLD cannot copy another instructor’s course materials into your course without written permission from the instructor.

* Can I copy material from my old course?

Instructors can copy material from previous courses into their current Blackboard course.  Instructions can be found here: http://hartford.edu/academics/faculty/fcld/data/documentation/bb9/Maintenance_Customization/CopyingContent.pdf.


If the course you want to copy is no longer on Blackboard, please fill out this form to have FCLD copy the course for you: http://hartford.edu/academics/faculty/fcld/learn_blackboard/course_requests/Course_Copy_Request_Form.aspx.
