Blackboard Course Template
The Academy has created a Spring 2023 Blackboard Course Template to help faculty in their course development for the spring semester. Using this template is not required; however, it may give you ideas for organizing your course materials, save you time building course structures, and ultimately provide students with a more consistent navigation of your course shell.

Syllabus Template
The Harper College Syllabus Template is available on the Harper Syllabus webpage. The version supports a variety of course modalities. Note: the template was updated for the 2022-2023 academic year, so there are no updates or changes to the template for the spring semester.
