Printing Content from a Blackboard Course

 

 

Printing Content

Students can print select content items in their Blackboard course shell or save them to PDF, providing more ways to engage with content. This option allows users to: 

  • Review content offline
  • Share content with students or peers
  • Physically archive content 

To print, click on the Print button. Use the browser print options to select the following: 

  • A printer or the PDF option
  • The page range
  • The layout

When printing from a mobile device, the Document prints as displayed on a desktop web browser. 

Depending on the size of some content (for example, images), items may shift to the next page depending on the page layout and scale. 

If content contains Knowledge Checks, these items appear in the same way they are on the content page when the student chooses to print.

  • If a student hasn’t answered a knowledge check, the block prints as unanswered.
  • If a student has answered the knowledge check, the block prints as displayed along with any instructor feedback.
