Faculty using Bb have a great deal of control over the look of their course sites. One might choose colors or patterns that fit a theme of the class (using blue and grey in an American Civil War class, for example), or one might change the coloring of course shells to help distinguish between the various courses being used any semester. In addition to changing the shape and color of the buttons faculty can change button names as well; one might rename the Documents button "Outlines" if that term better describes the substance of the content area.

Faculty can also manage the course over time. Using the Archive/ Recycle functions a course shell can be saved on a local drive for later use. This also serves as a good back-up strategy. With Course Copy one can reproduce all or part of a course between sections and across semesters. Finally, the Course Cartridge feature alows faculty to introduce sophisticated content and format from textbook publishers.
