Assessments in Blackboard

Blackboard allows users to create tests and quizzes using a variety of question types that are automatically graded and reported in the grade book. The links on the right take you to instructions for how to incorporate these questions into your tests and quizzes. A Multiple Choice Question Note: This quiz is set to allow multiple attempts. The many assessment options available in Blackboard may make choosing which ones to use both difficult and time consuming. While multiple choice, true/false, matching and ordering type questions seem pretty straight forward, calculated numeric response questions may be more complex. We suggest that you consult your instructional technologist before experimenting with more non-traditional question types.
