Hello Anna
At Liverpool John Moores University, we have been using it for several years with some success and some gnashing of teeth. This year we have decided to move away from it for a number of reasons. We have implemented the Bristol Assignment tool. So far, so good!
My colleague Jim Turner would be happy to chat with you about the Assignment handler off list
All the best
Alex

Hi Hilary
Thank you for your message.
Would you have time on Friday for a brief Skype call? Probably easier than via email. Or alternatively I can give you a call
Thank you
Anna

Dear Anna,
We also trialled it but decided not to adopt the assignment handler. Happy to discuss off list, Hilary

Hello all
I was wondering whether any of your institutions have tried the Assignment Handler http://www.blackboard.com/resources/Learn/Intl_Bb_Learn_Brochure_AssignmentHandler.pdf
Having the ability to batch upload marked assignments 'along with accompanying student grades to the Grade Center' as the brochure above claims sounds very promising.
Any feedback on how effective, 'glitchy' this tool is would be truly appreciated.
Thank you
Anna
