Blackboard will be unavailable January 2nd 2025, from 1:00am until 7:30am for scheduled maintenance by Anthology. During this time, you will be unable to log into Blackboard or access any Blackboard resources.
On the Course Content page, you can create folders and learning modules to present content in an organized and engaging way. You can add documents, file attachments, tests, assignments, multimedia, and links to websites and discussions.
You can use learning modules in your course as containers for organized collections of content. Modules let students navigate from one content item to the next without distractions or extra clicks. A learning module helps immerse students in the lesson or concept you are teaching. If you use a textbook or other material as the basis for your course curriculum, modules are an effective and logical way to group content to match the pace of these materials. More on learning modules

Edit the module title: Hover over the title and select to edit.
Change module visibility: You can show or hide the module for students. You can also select conditional availability. You can set the module availability on a certain date, as students achieve a chosen grade, or in a content sequence.
Edit the module description: Click Add a description to add an engaging description so students know what they will learn in this module.
Advance in Sequence: Check the Forced Sequence box to force students to view the learning module's content in sequence.
Image: Choose an appealing and meaningful image for your learning module. Adding an image to your learning module provides a visual identity for your course and helps your students locate the learning module.
You can add folders to a learning module to organize content. Folders in learning modules can only contain content items, not another folder.
Students navigate through content in folders the same as any other content in the module. However, you can force a content sequence. Students need to access and complete the content within the folder before moving on to the next content item within the module.
You can create two levels of folders to organize your content. Students will not get lost looking for materials, and your content is easier to manage.
You can reorder, edit, delete containers and content, and control what students see on the Course Content page. If you delete a folder or learning module that has content, the content is also removed from the Course Content page.
