How to Switch off those areas in Blackboard you are not using
It's really important that you switch off those parts of Blackboard you're not using. Empty areas can confuse and frustrate students.
Switching off the bits of your module not being used takes seconds! Here's what you do.
1. Go into the Control Panel of your module and click on Manage Course Menu under Course Options.
2. All the different content areas of your module should now be listed. Click on the Modify button next to the content area you'd like to switch off.
3. You should now be faced with a screen as represented in the screenshot below. To switch this area off, simply untick the box next to Make Available for Student/Participant users (highlighted in the red box below) and then click submit. And that's it.
4. You should do this for each content area of Blackboard you wish to disable.
