Blackboard Learn Original Grade Center
Overview
The Grade Center is a feature included in each Blackboard Learn Original course. It is a flexible tool that allows you to calculate running grades, add weights, provide feedback, drop the lowest grades, and more. The best practice for working with the Grade Center is to configure all grading options before the course begins. This is a great way to help your students plan for the course and receive timely feedback.
The Grade Center is accessed from the Control Panel. By clicking on the arrow to the right of Grade Center, the full Grade Center will display. When clicking on the title, Grade Center, default options are available: Full Grade Center, Assignments, and Tests. Additional views can be created using Smart Views. More information is provided, below, in the Resources section.
