Types of course templates:
Note: Blackboard will determine the type based on provided information.
- Shell
- This course allows an instructor to populate a course with class materials related to courses they teach each term. This allows a faculty member to update the shell course and copy it, semester to semester.
- Master
- This course allows program coordinators to populate a course on Blackboard with course materials related to a program or particular course that, regardless of section, has the same course materials. This master course can then be copied to multiple courses, regardless of the instructor.
- Organization
- Similar to a course site, but can be used for a variety of groups that may be ongoing and not limited to one semester. Organizations can be used by student groups, academic advisors, or specific majors to pass along information and store resources.
Below is the required information for a request to be processed:
- Name of Requested Course or Organization
- Additionally, the names and emails of any other users who need Instructor or Leader access.
