As we get closer to the fall semester, Information Technology wants to remind all instructors that Blackboard courses are limited to 500 MB in size. To avoid receiving a Quota Exceeded error when adding anything to your course, we recommend uploading content to a third party site like Google Drive, Panopto, or, YouTube where storage space is unlimited. Once a file or video is saved to one of those resources, you can then share a link of the file or video to your Blackboard course saving lots of valuable space. Below you will find information about the Quota Exceeded error, how to share a Google Drive document to your Blackboard course and how to upload videos to a third party site and share to Blackboard.
