Updated inline grading interface for Blackboard Assignments now live

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

As previously advertised, our transition to the new Box interface for inline grading of Blackboard Assignments took place at 8 a.m. today.

When opening student papers submitted to a Blackboard Assignment, you may see a message saying “this file is being converted”.

Blackboard Assignment - please wait message

If you see this message, just press your browser’s Refresh / Reload button (F5). The file should then display immediately.

We have updated our guidance on marking Blackboard Assignments using the inline grading features:

Marking a Blackboard Assignment online using the in-built tool (Inline Grading)

Blackboard Assignments – New Box Viewer – technical information (including a list of supported file types).

 

These supplement our more general guidance on using

Blackboard Assignments

Group Assignments

and the Blackboard Grade Centre

 

If you have queries relating to this change, please contact the TEL team via the IT Self-Service portal.
