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