Setting up Grade Center for K-12

Having one Blackboard course to manage multiple sections of students can be daunting. Following these one time steps will make grading easier when transferring Grade Center grades into your institution’s Student Information System. One you have completed these 2 steps, you will then be able to view Grade Center by class period rather than a long list of all your students.

5. Uncheck “Allow Personalization”
6. Enter the number of class period you have in “Number of Groups”
7. Click Submit
