Hi,
Currently we assign an email address to students with the format
[log in to unmask]
We recently had a few complaints from staff that some students are not
identifying themselves and hence the staff member has to either look up
the name from a class list (using the B40065432 as a match) or send a
reply asking the student to identify themselves.
I have conducted a straw poll of staff and whilst they state that this
does occur it is neither frequent nor a "real" problem.
Although we have aliases they are not used in Blackboard, though we are
debating that option.
However a way round this would be to have a Building Block that
attached the student name to any email/message from Blackboard. I would
be grateful if list members could advise if this type of Building Block
has been developed?
thanks,
Arthur
