Blackboard Manager
Below is an overview of Blackboard (Bb) Manager.
Overview
Blackboard Learn is the official Learning Management System for NDSU that connects students, faculty, and staff both inside and outside of the classroom. Blackboard Manager allows instructors to merge different sections of the same course in Blackboard.
Getting Started
- Instructors will have immediate access to courses. Beginning with the Spring 2024 term, you will have access to the courses you are scheduled to teach without activating each course individually in Bb Manager.
Best Practices
-
When you merge courses you must remember the number of the newly created Parent course, if you want to retrieve the course content from the archives. This new number can only be found for 1 year and is not recorded for future reference, you must keep it.
