Today, I spent the better part of 4 hours developing the graded Assignments in Blackboard Learn, our course management system. Most of the assignments will just hold the grade for the blog posts, account creations, etc. However, I did create a few quizzes and assignments where a worksheet will be uploaded. With the worksheet and blog post assignments, I had to create rubrics so that students could see where they had points taken off in their assignment submissions.
I have worked in a few course management systems over the past few years, including MyITLab and Blackboard Learn. I am striving to have the entire course be smart phone or tablet compatible, however, I am not sure if Blackboard will allow this for all the assignments. I will be testing this in the near future and post an update here. Most days, I have my IPAD and laptop open at the same time to make sure everything is smart phone compatible.
Developing this course has been a huge amount of work!
