BlackBoard Question of the Week

Q. Is there a good way to print a monthly calendar?

A. Unfortunately, there’s not a good option to print a calendar from Blackboard. But one way to do this is to open the calendar, then do a screen print:

1. Open the calendar in Blackboard.
2. On the upper right-hand side of your keyboard, press Print Screen or PrtScn.
3. Open a Word document and select Paste, or use Ctrl-V. 
4. Double-click on the image in Word, then use the crop button on the upper right side of the format tab.
5. When you crop the image, you can remove the blackboard course menu and header, so you only have the calendar.  You can also resize to make the calendar bigger.
