View marks and feedback in the Gradebook

When your lecturer posts your marks and feedback for assignments and tests, you will be able to view these in the Gradebook. For most tests your grade and feedback will be released automatically after submission. For assignments and essay questions in tests your submissions will need to be manually marked and your mark and feedback will not be visible in the Gradebook until your lecturer posts it.

 Instructions

Once your lecturer has posted your marks you will be able to access your marked submission with their feedback in Gradebook.

Your Activity Stream in the main Blackboard interface will notify you when your assignment has been marked:

You can also check your marks by going straight to your module and clicking on Gradebook in the tool bar. An indicator will appear beside the Gradebook tab with the number of new marks and a purple dot appears in the list for each assessment that was recently graded.

When your lecturer posts grades, they appear in the Mark column and any lecturer feedback will be indicated with a purple speech bubble.
