Take advantage of the move to Canvas to start from scratch. Use a blank sandbox course in Canvas to build your course. It is a great opportunity to:
- Try new interactive or collaborative tools to better engage your students and leverage all that Canvas has to offer. Build by optimizing your content with Canvas’ tools.
- Create a clear and organized course using Canvas Modules. It’s an opportunity to rethink your course’s design.
- Make sure all your content is recent and still relevant to your course. Leave behind cluttered and outdated content you may have had in your old Blackboard courses, also helping to save up storage and resources in our new system.
How to get started with a blank shell:
- To begin building, either request a sandbox (coming soon) or, if it is available, use your live course (coming soon).
- You can download all of the files you have uploaded to a Blackboard course to make it easier to upload to Canvas as needed.
- Take advantage of our Training and Support resources.
- Use the Student View tool to review your course as you are building to see it from the student’s perspective.
