The Import Package feature allows instructors to upload
information from an exported Blackboard course to a current course. Once a
course is exported, instructors can import the whole course, or selected parts
of the course into another course site.
Note: If the Course Settings are
imported, the settings from the exported course will overwrite the setting of
the destination. If the other areas are chosen, they will be added to the destination
course and the existing materials will remain.
From the Control Panel:
- Click on the Import Package link in the Course Options section.
- Click on the Browse button.
- Find the file to import on your hard drive or disc in the Find File window
and click Open.
Note: This action is different depending on the platform you are using. - Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click the Submit button.
More Information
- Q: When would I want to import a course?
- A: If you have exported a version of your course for storage, you will need to use this feature to reload your course to Blackboard. You can also share parts of your course with other instructors by importing specific areas to their course.
