    Addressing Blackboard Learn's Significant Grading Issues: A Must

    Feb 9, 2025
    The solid communication and content tools of Blackboard Learn are compromised by significant grading problems. Fixing the platform's features would make Blackboard Learn easier to use for instructors while also saving them time on administrative tasks.

Dislike

Setting weighted grades takes a lot of effort and I have faced numerous times when assignments failed to synchronise properly with the gradebook that needed manual handling leading to student confusion.
