Assignments in Blackboard 8

printable version

Assignments are provided by instructors and usually have deadlines and are submitted by you as attachments. You will first need to view an assignment, submit it, and then publish your completed work. An instructor might also allow you to submit an assignment multiple times or even retrieve an assignment after it has been graded and then resubmit it after a revision. Furthermore, you may also choose to download an assignment, either graded or not, in order to provide you with a hardcopy of your work. Workout: View an Assignment
