James,
A student that goes to view "My Grades" will see their specific
grade for a test as a hyperlinked value. Clicking the hyperlinked grade
will then take them to view the score and/or feedback and/or correct
answer and/or submitted answers, depending on the test settings.
There's a few techniques for letting students see their own
grades. The first two methods are used inside a course, the third
method is used outside a course.
1. Add the TOOLS menu item which has MY GRADES as one of the tool links
that then appears in the main frame. It will appear with all other
tools that are turned on in the course. This is most useful if you're
using other tools in the course (homepage, roster, etc).
2. Add a MY GRADES tool link as a menu item so students only need to
click once. This is most useful when you're not using any of the other
tools (homepage, roster, etc).
3. On a tab where the Tools panel is enabled (probable location: in the
top left, under the institution logo, on the "My Institution" tab), VIEW
GRADES can be enabled. This will let students view all grades for all
courses they're enrolled in. This works best if all courses are using
the Gradebook but if they're not, it can be an uneven experience for
students.
My personal preference is #2 - it's simple to add the MY GRADES
tool link as the last item on the menu in a course and gives the
students prompt access to their grades without needing to leave the
subject.
Depending on the version of Blackboard you use, there are a
couple of display options you can (or can't!) choose for the students
(eg: show class average compared to their grade) to see when they view
MY GRADES.
All the best,
Trav.
PS: We have changed the language pack as part of our installation so
you may find MY GRADES identified as MY MARKS, and MY INSTITUTION
identified as HOME or some other variant customised to your institution.

Subject: Displaying Specific Student Results
Hi All,
I was wondering whether anyone's been successful in displaying student
results through Bb?
Is there any way of displaying test results that are specific for the
logged in student?
Grateful for any help
James
