Output Text Files
Results from a scored exam can be output to three different tab-delimited text files suitable for importing. Complete Question #6 on the INFO sheet AND tell the Help Desk consultant if you would like any of these three different output text files sent to you via email.
A comma-separated text file formatted specifically for import into the Blackboard Original Grade Center:
- The generated text file name is a combination of the first word of the exam name the instructor entered in the NAME grid on the INFO sheet, + BBout, + the generated Incident Number (ex. INSTSVS_BBout_300000.txt)
- The fields generated in the BBout text file are: "Username" (the generated Bb username), "Score_000000" (the generated Incident Number), and "ID" (the Student ID or EmplID)
An RTF file containing the formatted reports generated:
- The generated text file name is a combination of the type of Scantron form used (i.e. 5- choice, 10-choice), single answer or multiple answer (S or M), and the generated Incident Number (ex. Exam5_S_300000.rtf)
A comma-separated scores text file which can be imported into most spreadsheet and/or word processing applications (but not into the Blackboard Original Grade Center):
-
The generated text file name is a combination of the first word of the exam name the instructor entered into the NAME grid on the INFO sheet, the word 'scores', and the generated Incident Number (ex. INSTSVCS_scores_300000.txt)
-
