Customizing the 'My Trinity' tab--Hiding/Editing 'My Courses' and Announcements, etc.

Editing options on the My Trinity tab include being able to decide which courses to display and the elements for each course site. This feature is especially useful for eliminating the clutter of course site links that are not being currently taught, i.e. courses from previous semesters or sites that are not being used. To edit/hide previous courses from your "My Blackboard" page:

 1. If you do not already have the My Courses box displayed on your My Trinity tab, you must first turn on the feature. Click on the Contents button in the upper-right corner of the main content area. On the next screen, select My Courses as shown below.

2. Click Submit, and then OK on the next screen to return to the "My Trinity Tab".

3. You should now see an additional area called My Courses. Click on the pencil icon in the upper-right corner as shown below.

4. Select "Display Course" for the courses you would like to view.  Uncheck any courses you wish to hide from the "My Trinity" view.

5. Select submit in the bottom right-hand corner of the page. You should now see only the courses you selected to view. You may also change the length of time announcements are displayed by clicking on the pencil icon in the upper right hand corner of the "My Announcements" box.

To customize the look of the "My Trinity" page:

1. Click on the "Content" or "Layout" buttons in the upper-right corner of the page.

2. Select content to add or remove modules from your My Blackboard page, such as:

• Bb System Info
