Submit an Assignment
When instructors want you to turn in or submit an assignment in Blackboard, they are talking about using a special type of Blackboard item that allows students to attach a document or to type text and is directly connected to the gradebook.
- Go to the area of the Blackboard course where you've been directed to submit the assignment.
- Click on the name of the assignment item.
To attach a file:
- Click on the "Browse My Computer" or "Browse Content Collection" button (depending on where
your file is stored) to locate and select your file.
- Then click "Submit."
To type text:
- Click on the "Write
Submission" link in section 2 to open the content editor. Type your text.
- Then click "Submit."
Preview Your Submission
After submitting, you will have a chance to review your submission.
Typed text, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and pdf documents will preview in the window. (Larger documents will take several
seconds for the preview to load.)
Other file types will have link to open/download the submitted file.
