Assignments and activities can be linked to the Grade Center, allowing students to receive timely feedback on assignments.

If you choose not to use Blackboard for your course, you may want to turn the course on and post an introduction to your students letting them know that, although the site is turned on, you will not be actively using it for class.// //See Course Evaluation section of this orientation for more information// //regarding course evaluations.//
