eLMS Blackboard Building Block
3.2.5 Record Grades

The Record Grades action is available only if the Blackboard system administrator granted the eLMS Building Block access to the gradebook, otherwise it will not be visible on the eLMS control panel at all. To use this action the instructor needs to have enabled grading when an eLMS assignment was made. This feature should be used once students have completed an assignment.

Using this action does not pose any risks, since the instructor can override the recorded data anytime in the Blackboard gradebook and only the selected assignment is effected. Repeated use of this action will only add grades for students whose grades have not yet been recorded.

To perform this action do the following:

  1. Click on Control Panel link in the navigation sidebar.
  2. Click on eLMS link in the Course Tools panel.
  3. Click on the Record Grades button. Screenshot
  4. Select the eLMS assignment for which to record the grades. Screenshot
  5. Change the path to grade information in the eLMS courseware, if neccessary.
  6. Click on the Submit button.

When an eLMS assignment is removed from the course, the gradebook entry created for it is removed from the gradebook.
