Create a Smart View\u00a0 in the Blackboard Grade Centre for each assignment that has been assessed and moderated, giving a clear name \u2018Internally Moderated [Assignment Name]\u2019 2. Choose Add as Favourite so a link will be created in your course menu 3. Use the Selection Criteria &#8216;User&#8217; \u2013 Chose from the selected users list.\u00a0 Use \u2018Ctrl\u2019 and click the users you wish to add. 4. From the drop down menu chose \u2018Selected Columns Only\u2019 and the Assignment that the smart view relates to. 5.

Remember to \u2018Group visible to students - No\u2019 When you click Submit, your favourited Smart View will be listed in your Grade Centre menu smart view list. Part 2: Linking to your Smart View from your External Examiner Organisation To create a link to a Smart View within another course, you must first copy the &#8216;Link Address&#8217; for the Smart View in the original course from your favourites. Then, exit the course and enter your External Examiner Organisation. Open the Content Area where you wish to add the link and select &#8216;Web Link&#8217; from the &#8216;Build Content&#8217; menu. On the next page give your link a name, we suggest following the convention Assignment Name &#8211; Module Code, and\u00a0paste in the link from your favourited Smart View into the URL box. Now, press Submit. Your Web Link will be created at the bottom of the page.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/sites.reading.ac.uk\/tel-support\/2018\/10\/10\/setting-up-external-examiner-smart-views\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Blackboard Help for Staff -
