 You can add content to your course by uploading existing files or by creating items directly within Blackboard. To create an item, begin by navigating to the area or you would like students to access this content. I'm going to provide a citation to a reading, so I'll go to Course Readings. When you're in that content area, hover your mouse over Build Content and select the type of content you would like to provide. You can add a range of multimedia content or you can create text-based content. I'm going to select Item from this menu. On the next page, provide a title, then enter your content into the text box. If desired, you can attach a file or multiple files here and set availability options. Click Submit to finish. Your content is now available in the content area.
