The previous chapters in this book discussed how to make our Blackboard instance ready for users. We've gotten our virtual community up and running, and given it a look and feel that makes its users comfortable to work with. Before we cut the ribbon and open our doors to the users, we need to create homes and apartments where they can work and communicate with one another. In Blackboard Learn, these areas are referred as courses.
In this chapter we will:
Learn how to configure default course settings and organize courses within our Blackboard Learn environment
Understand the different ways to create courses
Know how to bring content into our newly created courses
We have quite a bit of information to review in this chapter, so let's start creating courses.
