Gradescope enables electronic submission and marking of handwritten responses, typed responses, formulae and diagrams, programming/code and multiple choice. Gradescope can be added to any Blackboard course area. All Gradescope assignments and exams – both for students submitting and markers – are accessed through the Gradescope dashboard, the grades are pushed out to an associated column in the Blackboard Grade Centre.

Our colleagues in the Faculty of Humanities have come up with a method whereby students can upload their videos to the University’s Video Portal, and paste the generated link into Blackboard. This will enable you to view the videos in the Blackboard assignment tool, without placing a strain on Blackboard’s servers.
