Courses can be combined within Brightspace if you need to teach multiple sections with the same content.
Please Note: Courses must be merged before students have submitted any materials, as student grades do not move as part of a merge, just enrollment.
- Navigate to Brightspace and click the Admin Tools cog in the upper right corner.
- Select SIS Course Merge
- Select the courses you want to merge. You can use the search and filter options as needed to find the courses from your list.
- Click Merge Courses.
- Select the course you wish to merge content into.
- When you have selected the course to merge content into, click Merge.
- You will see a confirmation that your merge has begun. Depending on the time of semester this may take a bit of time. You will receive a notification in Brightspace when it is complete.
Please Note: Sections can be merged by instructors, but due to potential for data loss, they cannot be unmerged. Please submit a support ticket if you need assistance with unmerging courses.
Viewing Different Sections of a Merged Course
- Click Course Admin, located in the Navbar of your course.
- Navigate to the Learner Management section, then click on Classlist.
- Change View By: User to View By: Section using the drop-down menu, then click Apply.
- Use the new Sections drop-down menu to sort through the sections of your course.
