Where do I find my Blackboard assignment feedback?

Click Feedback and Grades, then click the name of the Blackboard assignment - this takes you to the My Grades page.  From here you can filter items between All, Graded, Upcoming and Submitted, as highlighted below. Select Graded to display all your grades for the module so far.

• The grade is on the right of the screen.
• Any feedback can be viewed quickly by selecting the speech bubble icon.
• If your tutor has used a rubric and made it available to you, you can see it using the link on the left.
   

Each item accessible from the My Grades page is described in more detail below.
