Between Semesters

Why bother?

Because the Banner information system at GW feeds Blackboard a new empty course shell for each of your courses each semester, things are quite convenient.

About one month before the start of a new term, you will see the upcoming semester's courses appear on your Course List.

Alas, there is some work you must do in between semesters as a result. Once the new course appears, you can use the following tools from the Control Panel to move materials from an old course to the new one:

  • Course Copy
  • Export/Import
