As the Summer 2024 and Fall 2024 courses will be created in Blackboard within the next couple of months, we thought it would be a great time to remind you about the Date Management tool in Blackboard.
You can use this tool to update content dates when you copy a course from a previous term or calendar year. Date types that can be updated through this handy tool include due dates, availability, and adaptive release dates related to the course content. Feel free to view this 3-minute video on where to find and how to utilize Date Management.
Please note that this tool works with dates that are set up through a date feature. Any date that you type out (for example in module titles, in text boxes, in announcements, etc.) will need to be individually, manually updated.
