Not a direct answer to your question, but the instructor could use the course files area to create a zip file of all the files within the course and then share that with students, see

http://elearn.southampton.ac.uk/blackboard/cfoverview/

 

The downside of this is it would include any hidden files that were on the course but not available to students – the instructor may not wish to share those files.  Additionally it will only capture files loaded into course content areas, so free text items etc. made in the text editor would not be included.

 

Cheers

Subject: Zipping up course content

 

Hi

 

One of our lecturers contacted us the other day asking if there was any way for students to download all the content in a course at the click of a button. I had to say there wasn’t but it seems like a neat idea. Does anyone know if someone has written a building block to do this?

 

Thanks,
