Using Inline Grading to Improve Your Teaching

This webinar will highlight Blackboard's Inline Grading tool, which allows you to view submissions, provide comments, and grade student-submitted items without leaving the page. The “in-line” feature allows you to make comments right in line with the student’s text, similar to how you would be able to write on a hard copy. There is no need to download the assignments onto your computer in order to grade and give specific feedback. Use of this built-in tool makes giving students feedback easier as the instructor and can help to improve the students' sense of instructor presence in the course by increasing the value of feedback received.
