The grade center is very customizable. Instructors can select which grades are displayed to students on their My Grades page, supply feedback to the students, create weighted columns and exclude certain assessments from final score calculations. Faculty can create grade columns for any activities or requirements they want to score such as projects, class participation or attendance. Data in the grade center is archived each week and can be retrieved from backup.

Students can benefit from seeing achievements or instructor feedback and, if necessary, adjust their approach to learning to improve performance.

  • Creating a Manual Column in the Grade Center
  • Manually Enter Grades
  • Column Organization

Rubrics can be used with the following Blackboard tools: Assignments, Tests, Discussion Board Forums and Threads, Blogs, Wikis, Journals, and Grade Center Columns.
