<h4>The Basics!</h4>
|-
 
Standard practices are the conventions followed by faculty and the Blackboard support staff in order to guarantee that the semester, in this case, starts smoothly.  Sometimes standard practices guarantee a common experience -- students are added to the courses on the same day -- and in other cases they guarantee clear, commonly understood communication between instructors and Blackboard staff.
 
<ol>
<li>'''students are added to course shells two days prior to the start of the semester'''.</li>
<li>Instructors can communicate with students before they are added to shells </li>
<li>Instructors are responsible for activating their course shells; students will not be able to participate in, or even see, course shells until they're activated.  The exception are courses taught completely online.</li></ol>
 
 
<h4 style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #E4863E">Transfer course content</h4>
<p></p>
<ul>
 
The form to request a course content transfer: '''[https://libservices.wpunj.edu/irt/bb/transfer/default.cfm <span syle="color:#0000FF"> https://libservices.wpunj.edu/irt/bb/transfer/default.cfm</span>]'''
 
<li>In the first of three sections enter the semester and course designations of both the course you are using as a template (origin) and the anticipated course shell (destination)
 
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="width:650px">
[[Image:Transfer_cc_1_650.png|center|650px]]
</div></li>
 
In the example above the origin course is from the Fall of 2014 and the destination is the Fall semester 2015. The course extension is the only difference in the course designation area. When looking at old courses remember that the course designation is pre-pended by the year of the course and the semester designation:

'''For Faculty Who Prefer to Control Their Own Content'''
 
The easiest way for faculty to move content from one section to another is to a) download the content from the origin section and b) upload it to the destination section.  The process takes as much time as it does to request a course transfer and can be done on your own time -- no waiting!
 
Text-based instructions for Exporting and/or Archiving a course in on Bb shell and then uploading (Restoring) it to another Bb shell can be found here:
: '''[http://bit.ly/wpunj-bb-AER Export/Archive/Restore]'''
 
Video instructions for the same procedures are available here:
: [http://bit.ly/wpunj-bb-archive Archive, machine readable files]
: [http://bit.ly/wpunj-bb-export Export, human accessible files]
: [http://bit.ly/wpunj-bb-import Restore course to a Bb shell]
 
 
<h4 style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #E4863E">Create course shells from sections which are associated by cross-listing or multi-sections</h4>
<p></p>
The form to request merging course shells:  '''[https://libservices.wpunj.edu/irt/bb/combine/default.cfm https://libservices.wpunj.edu/irt/bb/combine/default.cfm]'''
 
Note: Until very recently solution available to us was the Merge ('''Combine''').  The availability of the '''Master''' option gives faculty more choices, so please consult this link to decide which solution is best for you. 
 
[http://bit.ly/wpunj-bb-mergemaster http://bit.ly/wpunj-bb-mergemaster]
 
'''Merge'''
1. Students from the child sections -02, -03 and -60 are diverted to the parent section -01. 
2. Child sections are inactive and are unavailable to students.  All course activity takes place in the parent shell.
3. Merge is a good option for cross-listed course in which a course has two designations but takes place in one classroom.  Another example is the case of multi-section courses taught by the same instructor.
 
'''Master'''
1. Students from client shells are added to a master section.  The master section exists apart from the shells from which the students are drawn.
2. The client course shells are autonomous and can be used to host content and interaction apart from that which takes place in the master shell.
3. Master is a good option for lecture/lab courses in which separate course shells are needed for the differing needs of course content and delivery. 
 
Cross-listed and multi-section courses can be combined into one shell in order to reduce duplicated posting. An instructor or team of instructors teaching multiple sections of one course might find it to their advantage to put all the content into a single shell rather than replicating it across three shells, for example.  Please follow the instructions below to request merging a course shell.  '''Requests should be made before the beginning of the semester; waiting until the first week of classes to ask for a merge could result in delayed fulfillment of the request!'''
 
<ul>
<li>Point your web browser to '''[https://libservices.wpunj.edu/irt/bb/combine/default.cfm https://libservices.wpunj.edu/irt/bb/combine/default.cfm]'''</li>
<li>In the first section fill out the department, course number and section of both the parent course (the one that will be used) and the children. In the example below the parent course is History 1050-01 and the children are History 1050 sections -02 and -60.
 
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="width:650px">
[[Image:Merge_1_650.png|center|650px]]
</div>
</li>
 
<li>Include any special comments or questions in the next section of the interface
 
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="width:600px">
[[Image:Merge_2_600.png|center|600px]]
</div>
</li>
 
<li>Finally please tell us your name and email address. If more than one instructor is involved only one member of the team needs to be listed.
 
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="width:625px">
[[Image:Merge_3_625.jpg|center|625px]]
</div>
</li></ul>
 
NOTE:
 
A Combine request can also be made through the Web Help Desk:
[http://www.wpunj.edu http://www.wpunj.edu]
 
But for the best service please include the department designations (e.g Hist, Bio) the course number (1010, 1300, etc.) and the section number (-01, -60, -80, etc.) for all the courses involved.
 
 
<h4  style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #E4863E">Activate course shell</h4>
 
There are two ways to one might activate a course shell.  Remember that students will not see course content, or even a link to the course, until it has been activated.
 
 
'''The new way: Qwickly'''
 
<ul>
<li>On the My Blackboard page select '''Faculty: Set Course Availability''' in the '''Tools''' menu (upper left):
 
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="width:325px">
[[Image:New-qwickly1-0813-325.png‎‎|center|325px]]
</div>
</li>
 
<li>Click ON to activate a course and OFF to deactivate (at the end of the semester, for example)
 
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="width:230px">
[[Image:Q_course_activate_2_230.jpg|center|230px]]
</div>
</li></ul>
 
 
'''The old way: Course properties'''
 
<ul>
<li>In the Control Panel (bottom left corner of the course shell) select Customization, then Properties
 
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="width:210px">
[[Image:Course_activate_1_210.png‎|center|210px]]

</li>
 
<li>In area number three select availability to Yes
 
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="width:360px">
[[Image:Course_activate_2_360.png|center|360px]]
</div>
</li>
 
<li>Finish by clicking the Submit button
 
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="width:400px">
[[Image:Course_activate_3_400.png|center|400px]]
</div>
</li>
</ul>
 
 
<h4 style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #E4863E">Communicate with students before they've been added to course shells</h4>
<ul>
<li>Follow these directions: [http://www.wpunj.edu/bb/email-students-before-start-of-semester.pdf Email students using WPConnect] ''Updated August 2014''
 
</li>
</ul>
 
 
<h4 style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #E4863E">View Student Roster</h4>
 
After students have been added to course shells (see the first unit of the Standard Practices module) start by selecting Users in the Control Panel:
 
<ul>
<li>Control Panel => Users and Groups => Users
 
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="width:225px">
