Blackboard Learn Original - Final Grade Integration to Campus Connection

Below are instructions for importing final grades from Blackboard Learn Original into Campus Connection.

Faculty have the option to import final grades into Campus Connection (CC). This integration allows the instructor of record to import final grades from Blackboard Learn Original courses directly into Campus Connection. There are two steps to the process, first, enter all student's final grades in Blackboard Learn Original using the letter grades specified by Registration and Records.

Step One: Enter Final Grades in Blackboard Learn

A pre-configured grade column called “CC Final Grade” is included in all Blackboard Learn Original courses. This column should be used to enter final grades and will be the column imported into Campus Connection. We recommend that you do not delete this column from the Grade Center. 
 
Using the CC Final Grade column is optional. A different grade column (e.g., Total) can be used, so long as that column meets the specified configuration. 
 
For the grade integration to work using either the CC Final Grade or other columns, follow these steps:

Entering & Configuring "CC Final Grade" Column

  1. Type a final grade in the column
  2. Set this column as the External Grade column. The green check mark is a visual indicator that it is the External Grade column. 
  3. To set the “CC Final Grade” column to the External Grade: Select the context menu to the right of the column name and select Set as External Grade in the menu. The green check will appear to the left of the new selection. 

Optional grade column directions for import to Campus Connection

  1. Set the desired column as the External Grade column.
  2. Change the Primary display of the column to a Grading Schema that matches the Campus Connection Grading Basis [CC Final Grade (GRD)]. 
  3. To set the desired column to the External Grade: 
    1. Select the context menu to the right of the column name and click Set as External Grade in the menu. 
    2. The green check will appear. 
  4. To change the Column Primary Display: 
    1. Select the options menu for the grade column and select Edit Column Information. 
    2. Set the primary display to the proper grading schema in the drop-down selection (CC Final Grade (GRD).
  5. Submit 

Step Two: Importing Grades into Campus Connection

Once final grades have been entered into the Blackboard Learn CC Final Grades, it is time to move into Campus Connection.  The following provides a step-by-step overview of how the process works.
  1. Log into Campus Connection and navigate to
    1. Self-Service
    2. Faculty Center
    3. Grade Roster
  2. Click on the Import Grades button. This will import the Blackboard Learn grades displayed in the “CC Final Grade” column OR any other column set as the External Grade column.
  3. After grades are imported from Blackboard Learn, it is important to review the results. If the "Grade Import Error Log link displays, you need to click on it to review errors. If necessary, instructors can override the imported grade by choosing the drop-down arrow and selecting a different grade.

    Course Sections Merged in Blackboard Learn Original

    This is where two or more class sections in Campus Connection have been merged into one course in Blackboard Learn Original:
    1. Grade all students in Blackboard Learn Original in the master (parent) course.
    2. In Campus Connection, you will import grades for each section. 
      1. When you import grades in the first section, all grades will populate for the students in this section; and students in the other section(s) will show in the ‘Grade Import Error Log’ with the error ‘Student does not exist on Roster’.
    3. Repeat the grade import process for each section in Campus Connection. Be sure to review the results to ensure all students are graded in Campus Connection.
