Navigate a Course Site 1.1. Site Layout The image below highlights some of the main components of a Blackboard course site: 1. Course Menu: Links in the menu help users navigate the site and locate materials. 2. Control Panel: This instructors-only area provides access to the Grade Center, Course Tools and other editing options. 3. Course Banner: A course banner adds visual interest and appears on the course site s entry page. 4. Content Area: The main area of the page, where course content appears. 5. Global Navigation Menu: This menu provides quick access to your notifications, other courses, retention center, and calendar. 6. Logout Button: The Logout button officially ends your Blackboard session. Jun-15 1 irt.austincc.edu/blackboard
2 1.2. Editing Controls The following controls appear throughout the Blackboard interface and allow you to manage/edit your content: Click the Action Button next to an item s name to open a dropdown menu with all of your editing options. The action button appears for menu items, content items and grade center columns. The double-headed arrow allows you to drag and drop to reorder items. Click on the arrow and hold down the mouse button, drag the item to the desired location, then release the mouse button. The Show/Hide Menu Button appears in between the menu and the main content area. Click once to collapse the menu (the button will shift to the far left of your screen). Click again to restore the menu. Click the Expand/Collapse Menu Button to expand a menu to show all items or collapse a menu to hide all items. You can expand/collapse your course menu and various menus within the Control Panel. 1.3 Edit Mode At the top right corner of your screen you will find the Edit Mode button. When Edit Mode is On, editing options are available to add or modify course content. Click the Edit Mode button to turn edit mode off and preview how students will see the course. Click Edit Mode again to turn edit mode back on and continue editing. 2. Set Up a Course Site 2.1 Teaching Style You can customize the appearance of your course site by adjusting the organization and appearance of the menu, adding a course banner, and defining the course entry point. Begin by going to Control Panel > Customization > Teaching Style. Jun-15 2 irt.austincc.edu/blackboard
3 Course Structure: Under 1. Select Course Structure, you can browse course structures, predefined course materials such as menu links, instructions, and content examples that can jump-start your course organization. Click on a course structure in the left column to open a description and preview of that structure. Click Use This Structure > Submit to apply it to your course. The selected course structure's content is added to your course and does not replace existing menu items and content. You can delete unnecessary items. Entry Point: Adjust the entry point to determine what page students will see first upon entering the course. Under 2. Select Course Entry Point, open the dropdown menu to select a page > Submit. Menu Style: When styling your menu, be sure it will be easy for students to read. Avoid patterns and make sure there is sufficient contrast between the background and text colors. Under 3. Select Menu Style, select either Text or Buttons and make color selections. Check the Preview to see what your selections will look like. Click Submit to apply your menu style. Course Banner: The banner will appear on the entry page. You can use an existing image or create a banner using PowerPoint or imaging software like Photoshop. Banners should be approximately 450 x 100 pixels and no larger than 65kb in size. Under 5. Select Banner, click Browse My Computer to locate and select the image > Submit. Jun-15 3 irt.austincc.edu/blackboard
4 View as a Student There are 3 different ways to view a course from the student perspective. Each has its own benefits and you can use them all. 1. Edit Mode: (also see section 1.3) This is the most visible and quickest way to view as a student. The option is always available on the top right side of the page. Edit Mode ON = editing as an Instructor Edit Mode OFF = viewing as a Student Please note that this is an approximate view and the control panel is still visible, students would not view that area. 2. Student Preview: This is an eye icon located next to edit mode. The Instructor leaves the current screen and is launched into a student preview account that is automatically enrolled in the course as a student. The student preview allows interaction exactly like a student, so for example you can turn in assignments. Upon exiting, instructors can choose to keep or delete data created while in student preview mode. 3. Test Student: Located in the control panel, this allows you to enroll a test student in any course you teach to preview the course site. This is convenient because you can work as both teacher and student at the same time. It is possible to be logged in as an instructor in one internet browser and a student in a different internet browser (NOT just an additional tab or window) and quickly see changes in both browsers. Go to Control Panel > Course Tools > Add Test Student. A test student account is created with "_s" appended to the end of your ACC Eid (e.g. j _s). Enter a password for your test student > check the box to enroll the test student in the current course > Submit. The test student is created and enrolled in the current course. You can now login as the test student using the username and password described above to access your course site as a student. 2.3 Date Management Automatically adjust all content and tool dates (including due dates, content availability, and announcements) in your course at once. Go to Control Panel > Course Tools > Date Management. Select Use Course Start Date or Adjust by Number of Days to adjust the dates accordingly, or select List All Dates for Review to manually adjust each date, then click Start. Jun-15 4 irt.austincc.edu/blackboard
5 When date management is complete, you will see Date Management Review, where you can verify the new dates for all course items. From here, you can Run Date Management Again with different settings, Adjust Dates on selected items by a set number of days, or manually Edit individual dates if necessary. 3. Add Content 3.1 Menu Item Add Menu Item: Click the blue box with a plus sign at the top of your course menu. From the dropdown, select the type of link to add to the menu. Options include, but are not limited to, the following types of links: 1. Content Area: (a blank page where you can add text, files, folders, tests, assignments and other course materials): Enter a Name > check Available to Users > Submit. 2. Tool Link: (a link to an integrated Blackboard tool, such as My Grades or the discussion board): Enter a Name > open the Type dropdown menu and select a course tool > check Available to Users > Submit. 3. Web Link: (a link to a URL outside of Blackboard): Enter a Name > enter the URL > check Available to Users > Submit. 4. Subheader/ Divider: (items to organize your menu): For subheaders, enter a Name > Submit. A divider simply adds a horizontal line to the menu. Edit Menu Item: Click the action button open editing options, which include: next to the menu item to Rename Link: Edit the text that appears in the Course Menu. Show/Hide Link: Indicates a menu item is hidden from students. Select Show Link to make it available or Hide Link to make it unavailable. Delete: Remove the menu item. Jun-15 5 irt.austincc.edu/blackboard
6 Folder Use folders to organize course content by grouping related materials together. Go to a Content Area in your Course Menu > click Build Content > from the New Page column select Content Folder. Enter a Name for the folder > Submit. A folder is added to the Content Area. Click on the name of the folder to open it and begin adding content. 3.2 Item Creating an Item lets you add text and attach files to a Content Area, or within a folder. Go to a Content Area or Folder > click Build Content > from the Create column select Item. Enter a Name and your Text > click Browse to locate and attach a file if needed > Submit. 3.3 Content Editor When entering text, you can use the Content Editor to format text and embed multimedia to make your course content more dynamic and engaging. Below are some of the features you will find in the Content Editor: 1. Standard text formatting options, including font style, font size, bullets and numbers, etc. 2. From left to right: Preview your content, get information on each of the formatting options, expand the editor to full screen, and collapse the editor toolbars. 3. Record from webcam (see section 3.5 below for details). 4. Integrate multimedia.
