2. 2 What to learn and why If you develop and rebuild your Blackboard course shells semester after semester, you may wish you had a more efficient way to move course materials from one course shell to another. Here is an easy way to save your time so you need not rebuild your course shell from scratch each time!

3. 3 We are moving! …moving into a new course shell is just like moving into a new house… Chris: Isn’t it great that we are going to move to our new home Fun Clerkship Village?! Katie: Wow! The only thing I worry about is we have hundreds of items… Chris: Don’t worry. Let’s do it step by step.

4. 4 Packing, cleaning, and moving Chris: Before we move to our new home, we need to do two things: First, we will pack our stuff. Then, we will clean. Finally, we will move our package into our new house. Katie: Good idea! Packing, cleaning, and moving – Let’s start now.

5. 5 Now click on the “Control Panel” button on the left at the bottom of the old course homepage. Step 1 Packing Chris: Let’s pack first. Here is the task list for packing: Control Panel  Archive (at the bottom on your left)  Save as (Highlighted. You won’t miss it.)  Save on your desktop. Then our stuff will be packed and put on our desktop. Let’s do it now, honey. Katie: Let’s try…Wow! This is really easy and fun.

12. 12 Clean To clean our new home for our stuff to move in, let’s click “Manage Course Menu” on the Control Panel of the new course.
