Clean Up Discussion Boards

Introduction

If you are using a BlackBoard course that you taught previously, the discussion board entries from the first course will still be in the course. Follow this procedure to get rid of them quickly. 

 

Directions

  • On the Announcements page of the course, click on Discussion Board button.

  • Click on the forum name to open the fourm.

  • In the list of posts, click Show Options (if the options aren’t there).

  • Click Select All and then click the Remove icon. All the entries will be removed.

  • If you want to save one of the posts, just deselect it before you click Remove.

  • Repeat for each forum.
