You can easily copy all of your course content from one of your Blackboard Course shells to another. You might need to do this if you are teaching more than one section of a course per term, or if you are teaching the same course the next term. Either way, the process is the same.

To copy content from one Blackboard shell to another:

  1. Navigate to the course shell that contains the content you want to copy.
  2. In the Control Panel, click Packages and Utilities.

  7. Click Select All. Note: If you have used Discussion Boards in your course, and probably will not want to copy your student posts into the other course shell. Under Discussion Board select Include only the forums, with no starter posts.
  8. Click Submit.

The process to copy a course from one shell to another can take some time. You will receive an email in your COD email account when the process is complete. 

You may find that you have duplicate Course Menu items in your course shell when you copy a course. It's good practice to remove any duplicate Course Menu items in the course shell.
