Hi Donna, Thank you for the excellent video to introduce this useful feature in Blackboard Learn. If you don't mind, could I share it with my colleagues?
Thank you. I have specific questions about creating a midterm exam. If the student can select Topic A or Topic B, do I include both or make 2 separate exams? (A colleague said if I type in both topics, max points for each is 50. But students choose only one topic, each worth 100 points.) Description: reviews number of points midterm is worth in their final grade. Instructions: is this where I type in "You have x minutes to plan and write..."? On Test Canvas, I add the actual topic or topics? Is there another , more basic training I should follow?
The reason you can't delete the Total column is it's set to be the "External Grade"(indicated by the green check). Just set the Weighted column you are keeping as the "External Grade" and you will then have the "Delete" option available in the "Total" column menu.
Donna, thank you for the video. I have the following questions: 1. I teach multiple sections of a course. How can I create this in one section and use the work for other sections? 2. My colleagues who teach this course also wants to use the same large pool we have created together. How can they use this as well without having to repeat the base work? Thank you Donna!
Thank you! Turns out, I actually started to remember how by watching this. It has been awhile since I've updated my exams. I cobbled together a new one and needed to deploy it. Again, thank you!
