End of Semester Procedures
- Archive Blackboard Courses:
Archive is a backup of the entire course, including student grades and student work for the semester it was taught in. JCC receives copies of the archived courses which are backed up at ITEC in SUNY Buffalo at the end of each semester. You may want an archive of your Blackboard course to maintain a record of student work that is stored with your computer files for easy retrieval. Click here for directions.
