Faculty can use the Assignment Tool within Blackboard to allow students to upload a document that is required for one of the course assignments. The tutorial link below will guide students through the steps of submitting their documents through Blackboard to ensure that the instructor receives it.
Assignment Tool Tutorial for Students
The basic process involves students locating the link in their Blackboard course (instructors should provide this information to students). Once students have located the link, they will click on the link and read any instructions that the instructor has provided. Finally, students will browse to locate the file on their computer and then select it. An important step to remember is to click the "Attach File" button below the name of their file that they have browsed and selected. The file will not be attached to the assignment unless students click this button. Students will also have the opportunity to send comments to the instructor on this page. The last step is to click the Submit button. Students will retrieve their grade for the assignment and any instructor comments and feedback by going to the My Grades area in Blackboard.
