Instructors may upload Gradebook information into the Blackboard Learning System from the Upload Gradebook page. Instructors may select a specific Gradebook item, such as a Quiz or a Test, to upload, as well as, specific Student grades within the Gradebook item to upload.
Note: For best results, Instructors should manipulate and upload a Gradebook that has been downloaded from the Blackboard Learning System. It is not advised that Instructors create a new Gradebook from scratch then upload it.
Follow the steps below to open the Upload Gradebook page.
Step 1 Select Gradebook on the Course Control Panel.
Step 2 Click Upload Gradebook.
Click Browse and select the file to upload to the Gradebook. The Choose Column to Import page will appear. On this page the Instructor may specify which item he or she would like to upload to the Gradebook. When a Gradebook is uploaded the existing grades are not automatically written over or lost. In the following Web pages the Instructor chooses which information is uploaded and written over.
Note: The Total and Weighted Total columns cannot be included in a Gradebook upload because this data is generated by calculations within the Gradebook. Instructors cannot manipulate the data for these areas.
