Archive Course
Archive Course creates a permanent
record of a course including all the content
and user interactions. Unlike the Export
Course feature, Archive Course is not useful
when trying to create a package of content
to be used at a later time or with another
course.
Archived courses are saved
as .zip files with the following file naming
structure: ArchiveFile_Course_ID.ZIP. These
.zip files are stored and Instructors can
access them for use in the future. Archiving
a course does not remove it from the system.
1. Log onto Blackboard at
http://bb.elmhurst.edu.
2. Under Courses you are
teaching, click the link of the desired
course.
3. Click the "Control
Panel" button (the bottom-most button
located to the left of the screen).
4. To open the Archive Course
page, open the Course Control Panel and
click Archive Course in Course Options.
5. Select Submit to export
the course contents and save it for future
use.
6. On the following page,
select Click here to download the exported
course site to save it to the computer you
are working on. Instructors must select
this option to save the archive file of
the course. The file may only be saved on
the computer you are working on; files are
not saved to the Blackboard Learning System.
