Dear students,

Blackboard will shut down on 31 October 2021, and the deadline for downloading any content you would like to save from your completed courses is coming up. Read on for important information about how to download your content before Blackboard is shut down for good.

After Friday 15 October at 23:59, you will not be able to download content using the Course Content Download tool. This tool lets you automatically download content from the courses you select, and the material will be sent to you in a .zip-file. Please be aware that a lot of students are using this tool, which means that there may be delays in sending your material.  Get your instructions here.

After 15 October, you will still be able to download your content manually. You will be able to download content manually through 31 October 2021. Get your instructions here.

Note: After 31 October, content from Blackboard will no longer be available. If you do not receive content requested using the Course Content Download function before this date, you’ll be contacted and informed about possible solutions.

You’ll find instructions on how to download content on AU Studypedia, as well as more information about how to get off to a good start with Brightspace, AU’s new learning platform.

Best regards,

AU Studies Administration on behalf of the Brightspace team at CED
