Spring 2007 Courses are ready in CUNY Blackboard via the CUNY Portal
All Spring 2007
courses have been loaded into the CUNY Blackboard system and
are accessible only via the CUNY Portal.
If you have been associated with a course for the spring semester,
that course will now be listed after you log in to CUNY Blackboard.
Student rosters have also been loaded.
You now have the ability to copy your course content for yourself by following the directions found here. Other help documents related to Blackboard 6 may be found here.
The new version of Blackboard 6 includes faculty control over
course merges (combining several sections or rosters into one Blackboard
course site).

Information about combining Blackboard sections
If your courses
are not listed on Blackboard, it is very likely that you are not the official instructor of the course yet. Please
check with your department chair to confirm that your teaching assignment
has been
submitted to the Registrar's Office and
to Human Resources.
All courses are created as "Unavailable".
This means that the instructor can see the course, but students cannot.
Instructions for making courses available:
- From the Control Panel, click on "Course Settings" under the Course Option.
- Now click on "Course Availability".
- Click either "Yes" or "No" to make the course available to users (students and guests) or unavailable.
- Click "Submit" and then "OK" to complete the process.
- Once you have made the course available, you can go to guest access to permit or block guests from viewing the site.
Training
Workshops will be available in February and during the semester.
