Over 2300 Blackboard course sites have been automatically created for Spring 2010, based on data from STORM (Peoplesoft) . Certain course types, such as Independent Study and Tutorial, do not get created automatically. To see if your course site has been created, log into Blackboard and new courses will show up in your “My Courses” module.
If your course site does not show up, you can request that your course site be created by clicking “Request a Site” on our Blackboard Support web site.
By default, courses are set to “unavailable” and can only be seen by instructors and other course administrators (teaching assistants, course builders, etc.) and not by students. Make your course “available” once you are ready for students to see the content.
If you run into problems, contact the OIT Service Desk at 919-684-2200 or by clicking “Get Help” on our Blackboard Support web site. For assistance with configuring your course site to support your teaching goals, contact the Center for Instructional Technology, learninginnovation@duke.edu.
