Content Creation Basics
Blackboard Collaborate Ultra allows for content to be created "in line" I.e. you can insert new content above, below, or between existing content items.
Within Blackboard Learn Ultra, the course menu from the Learn Original environment is no longer available. Instead, the individual content folders will appear as folders within the course content area.
Adding Course Content
To add content, hover your cursor over the dividing line at the top or the bottom of the Course Content area, or click on the line that divides two content items. The line will turn purple and a + icon will appear. Click on the + Icon to add content.

After clicking the + button, you will see a menu with the following options:
- Create: Select this option to create new content within Blackboard.

- Upload: Select this option to upload files from your computer
- Content Market: Select this option to integrate content from textbook publishers
