Reminder: Blackboard Update on Monday 18th of December

On Monday we will be updating Blackboard. Blackboard will be unavailable from 9am until 5pm.

This update includes:

  • A new mobile friendly theme
  • A change to the Inline Grading Tool
  • Bug fixes and security updates

New Theme

The new theme will allow Blackboard to be more easily used on a mobile phone.  It also means we must turn off individual Course Themes.

Inline Grading Tool

The current Inline Grading Tool, Crocodocs, is being shut down in January and Blackboard are moving to the new Box View.  This change is completely out of our control and affects every institution using Blackboard.

Bug fixes

Some known issues that will be fixed with this update include:

  • Hotspot question inaccuracies
  • Needs Grading errors

If you want to see more about these features we’ve made a handy series of posts about the update.
