Arranging the Course List

As new semesters begin, Blackboard users may want to rearrange their course list so that new courses are easily located. 

Blackboard courses are listed on two tabs, My Blackboard in the My Courses module, and the My Courses tab.  Both can be arranged using the same method, but they are independent of each other, so arranging one a certain way will not change the other.

In the above image, the new Fall course needs to go above the old Spring course.  Click the “flower” icon at the top right to get to the Personalize: Course List screen.

Use the arrows to click and drag courses into the desired order.  After clicking the Submit button, the courses will list in the assigned order.  The checkboxes can also be used to hide course info – unchecking the Course Name will hide the course entirely.
