Like Turnitin, Vevox is an add-on to Blackboard and you embed it into your Blackboard learning content in a similar way.
Within your content area, add a Vevox session using the Build Content drop-down menu. Select Vevox.
This opens up the Vevox tool in Blackboard, select the session name that contains the quiz that you want to include in the lesson e.g. BMS788-week1-quiz.
Then select whether you want participants to be Anonymous or Identified e.g. whether you want the participants’ marks sent to the grade centre.
Anonymous = Participants are fully anonymous therefore no grading information can be passed back to the VLE/LMS
Identified = Names will be hidden for other participants but the participants identity will be visible in the data reports and will pass back correct answer grading information to the VLE/LMS
As it’s live I chose Anonymous to encourage participation, then select the activity type (Live polling and Q/A), click Select.
