This document discusses merging or augmenting course sites on Blackboard. It provides examples of when merging or augmenting may be useful, such as for multiple sections, co-taught sections, or co-listed sections. It describes the difference between merging sites, which hides the original sites, and augmenting sites, which makes items shared in a combined site but keeps original sites visible. It also provides instructions for how to request that course sites be merged or augmented by emailing Blackboard support with the course details and specifying whether a merge or augment is needed.
4. Examples
1. Multiple sections (different
times/rooms)
2. Co-taught sections (graduate
and undergraduate)
3. Co-listed sections (different
department codes)
5. Solution
Combine into one site with:
A. Hidden original sites
(MERGE) (everything in
combined site)
B. Visible original sites
(AUGMENT) (shared items in
combined site, individual items
in original sites)
(MERGE is most common solution)
