Is there a way to see answers on blackboard? ›

Tips by Test Setting

All Questions at Once Test: Click the Save button as you answer each question. While Blackboard will auto-save your answers, clicking Save will record your answers each time you click it. One Question at Time Test: To navigate between questions, use the forward and back arrows on the test page.

Only instructors have the option to hide courses. To show a hidden course, filter the list by Hidden from me > open a course's menu > select Show course.

In an existing test, select the plus sign wherever you want to add a question. Select Add Fill in the Blank question. You'll use the same process when you create questions in tests and assignments. Type your question and add brackets around the answer.

Blackboard uses strong tools to catch cheating. One of them is Blackboard SafeAssign, which checks for copying and plagiarism. Also, they have a thing called proctoring software and lockdown browsers, like Respondus Monitor, to watch students during tests.

As an instructor, you can see when your students opened, started, and submitted tests and assignments with the Student Activity report. In general, this feature looks and functions the same whether you're working in an Original or Ultra course.

Students and instructors can see that it's a proctored assessment by the assessment title. If you're using a timed assessment, the timer doesn't start for the assessment until the settings for the proctored services have been confirmed.

Your institution can choose not to allow students to reply to or create messages in their courses. Your instructors don't control this setting. You may only be allowed to read the messages other roles send, such as instructors and teaching assistants.

The answer is yes. Safeassign is the tool in the blackboard that checks your work to detect if it is similar to other people's work. If safeassign finds a match, it raises a flag for plagiarism, detects where you copied the work from, and highlights a particular original source.

Log onto Blackboard and go to the relevant course. In the left menu, navigate to Control Panel, then Grade Centre, then Full Grade Centre. Check a column header for a circle with a red line through it which indicates the column is hidden from students.
