Blackboard Tip of the Week: Making a class unavailable to individual students

When a student drops or withdraws from a class, instructors can make the course unavailable to that student.

It is recommended that instructors do not remove a user from a course where work is in progress. Removing a student from a course permanently removes all data for that student. If information is needed about a student’s online activity in a class, it cannot be retrieved.

How do I make a course unavailable to individual students?

1. On the Control Panel click Users and Groups.
2. Click Users.
3. Click the drop down by the student’s name and select Change User’s Availability in Course.
4. On the Change User’s Availability in Course page, set Available (this course only) to No using the drop down menu.
5. Click Submit.
