Quick tour on how to link files in your course

When you open up your new Blackboard course, the Course Menu will only contain the Home Page module page. One cannot add files to this area.

If you want to provide your students with files, you need to add at least one "Content Area" to the Course Menu and then add an Item (Word document, Pdf file etc.) to that Content Area.

The two videos below will show you how to add to the Course Menu and then how to add your syllabus file to the Course Material content area.
