Trying to add a quiz/test for a group of students (24 students in 3 groups). I want them to submit individual assignments with different due dates. HOW?

How do you export a Test?

Thanks . very informative

This is fantastic, I've be an ID for 12 years, and I've never been as impressed with content shared. I appreciate that you aren't just marketing your college but making this usable for other colleges. Thank you!!

Troy, thank you. These videos are just what I have been searching for. I am an Instructional Designer and we recently adopted BB Ultra for a small number of our courses. It is like trying to learn a new language, and all of the instruction is in the language you don't know. You're videos are exceptional and easy to follow. Thank you for these great resources!

this does not address the fact that you need to use Pools. I have test bank files from publishers that cannot be uploaded

When you grant a student an extension (changing their due date) on an assignment or test with release conditions (specifically the Hide After date), do we also need to edit the student's Hide After date to make sure it doesn't hide until after their extended due date, or will that automatically adjust when we grant their new due date?

Is there a way to put a date instead of grade or letter?

I followed your instructions and I keep getting “error:invalid column ID”. Do you have any videos on fixing errors?

Blackboard Superb.

Are you able to do this in the natural Overall Grade Column. That is the column that sends the grade to the SIS?

I set up the grades but the totals are not correct. Why are some of my assignments not being included n the cumulative totals?

Excellent

The nice thing about Bb Learn is that it was possible to come up with creative workarounds. I'm not getting that same sense with Ultra.

Does Ultra allow "equal" and "proportional" weighting within a Weighted Category?

Does Ultra allow the display of both points and percentage, as Bb Learn does?

How does Ultra handle manual grade overrides of "0"? If a student completes the assessment after the manual "0" override was implemented, is there an easily visible indicator signaling the grade change, or is the late-submission grade hidden, as is the case with Bb Learn?

What is the general consensus regarding migrating from Bb Learn to Ultra? Is it a smooth transition, or a painful transition?

Is it possible to import a Blackboard Learn Course Package into an Ultra shell?

Are Question "Banks" and "Pools" considered the same thing in Ultra?

Thanks a lot. We just migrated from Bb to Bb Ultra, and I was totally lost. Your video really helped.

Thanks!

Thanks, It was really helpful. Can you explain how can we connect the course outcomes with questions in the Bank questions through Blackboard Ultra?

thanks. I was stuck. I kept looking for the properties / tools / course copy kind of options from the old blackboard. Helped me get the most out of my weekend!

I was looking to see how I can add criterion to a rubric template. It seems like there are only four spaces for criteria.

The Blackboard Utra folks appear to have NEVER watched end-users...

Thanks for this very informative video. If I only want to import some part of one course to another, how do I do that? For instance, just one assignment? Could you please guide. Thanks

Is it possible to set the extra credit up with "max points" and then based on what the students do, they will receive up to that max points or all the points? It seems as though the feature give a set amount of points, rather than allowing for a max point.

Thanks for walking through this. I guess my only issue is that the new Schema still adds the Extra Credit points to the total. So they have a 76.7% out of 430 points, so if they did 20 points extra credit, they should actually have a 81.3% out of 430 point. However, the new schema adds the extra credit assignment total, so instead of calculating from 430 points, it calculates from 450. In the original Blackboard, you could just set the Extra Credit assignment to 0 and it would add the points to their total, without increasing the total points for the course grade. However, I'm discovering currently that if I set it to 0, then Blackboard Ultra won't award the student more than 0 points in the calculations, regardless of the number I give them. I just noticed this tonight, and am I trying to figure out how to fix it, because I don't want it to add the extra 20 points to the total, as you can see, it decreases the actual affect of doing the assignment. Which, if that is how you want extra credit to be calculated, that's fine, but I'm looking to make it very clear that my extra credit assignments will replace direct points (so 20 points would be actually making up 20 points in the grade). If anyone has figured this out, let me know! Thanks! EDIT: Okay, it appears that the old method of just making the assignment worth 0 points, and assigning it the appropriate category, works. However, it only updates from the Student view --- not the instructor view. So the Student would see, say, a 79% but from instructor view, I only see 77%. So... is this a weird glitch only I am having, or is this a bigger problem?

Orange shirt, concrete room, prison cell? lol. Good walk thru though.

Is there a way to contact directly or is that something you arent allowing?

Hey Troy, Great video, thanks! I did everything you demonstrated and it worked great, but my assignments aren't showing up in the gradebook on Blackboard. Does that take a while or unpair and repair?

Question=Are the rubrics for the discussions already in Blackboard or do we need to create and upload our own. If they are in BB already, how do I access them? Thank you for such clear and useful videos. You get right to the point, with no wasted time. The videos on the grade book have helped me tremendously. Thank you for posting where everyone can benefit.

Do you have any tips for the file formatting for importing questions? I have followed the guide for using excel saved as a tab delimited .txt file where each line is a question and each column is type/question/answer1/correct/answer2/incorrect/answer3/incorrect. There is no header and only 30 rows of questions. Saved as .txt and zipped as the only file in the zip. I get an error every time that it will not import. Any ideas?

Thank you for your video. Is there a way to download the individual responses or interactions for all students for each question in a test or SCORM file?

I cannot change student grades that have already posted. What am I doing wrong?

If I turn on SafeAssign, will the uploaded file be analyzed by SafeAssign?

Could you help me export a quiz in ultra? I cannot for the life of me find how to export a quiz as a zip file.

I made a horrible mistake! I accidentally deleted a student's mid-term exam! I have two students with the exact same name and I deleted the wrong exam. Is there any way I can get that exam back? Argh!!!!!!

Does Blackboard ULTRA provide the instructor with the ability to create a student grade report - like in Blackboard Original? The stats report in ULTRA is informative but not as "student friendly" as in Blackboard Original (the Bb Original report could be saved as a pdf. for both faculty and student records). Can you help?

Thanks for the videos. Very useful.

Hi! I have one student who needs to write her final exam at a different time than the rest of the class and I cannot figure out how to do this. The exam is timed, set to start at a specific time on a specific date and is set for 180 minutes. I'm really hoping you know how to make an exception for one student to access that exam early. Thank you!

thanks for the extra credit tutorial

Thank you for making these videos. They are super helpful

Thanks for trying, but at 1:30 you have a module within your course setup. I don't. There is no module like that.

Hello, thank you for your videos. Can you make a demonstration (or if you have a link video to access it) about advance calculation in gradebook. I don't use percentage nor points but the 4, 3, 2, 1, system like in gpa. appreciate the information.

Can I make this work with weighted grades where the point values are not weighted equally? For example, both a quiz and a test might be worth 100 points, but the average of the tests equals 25% of the grade while the average of quizzes is only 15%.

When I exempt the extra credit category, the value I inserted returns to "0".

Is it possible to create an assignment that applies a late penalty for each day it is late?

If you are using an Publisher LTI Tool with deep links, you will need to assign them to a category for them to show up in the overall grade setup. Another element of an accurate gradebook is grading the items the right way. Here is a video explaining the different ways Blackboard wants you to grade assignments. ua-cam.com/video/cuXjU2rz-kw/v-deo.html
