However, when you create course content pages using Blackboard's text editor, the course content will NOT be stored in your Course Files. Therefore, if you delete course content that you have created using Build Content > Blank Page or Build Content > Item, it is gone forever.
There is a solution for you! Keep the convenience of bypassing Course Files, while being secure that your valuable course content pages are not accidentally deleted by creating a hidden Learning Module called "Recycle Bin". Since the Learning Module will be hidden, students cannot see the contents. Therefore, you can move any course content that you create using Build Content > Blank Page or Build Content > Item to the "Recycle Bin" when you no longer need the course content.
Moving course content to the "Recycle Bin", rather than deleting the content altogether, gives you a final opportunity to “rescue” the course content, by moving it to one of your weekly Learning Modules, the same way your computer's Recycle Bin gives you one final place to rescue your files prior to deleting the files forever.
