After setting up your Keyboarding in SAM course, create links from Blackboard® to activities or other content in Keyboarding in SAM. Linked graded activities are included in the Blackboard gradebook unless you choose to exclude them.
Before adding links to Keyboarding in SAM activities, make sure your Keyboarding in SAM course is set up the way you want it.
- Add and organize the assigned activities and course materials for your Keyboarding in SAM course.
- Configure assignment settings such as grading, attempts, feedback, time limits, due dates, and grade categories.
- SAM
activities are worth 100 points. To change this, edit the points for an
activity in the Blackboard gradebook after adding the activity
link.
Editing points is not available in Blackboard LTI Advantage.
- Prerequisites
- Integrate Keyboarding in SAM With Your Blackboard Course
Links created in this way are sometimes called deep links because they are not just web links but allow data to be exchanged between Blackboard and Keyboarding in SAM.
-
Click Select Content and select activities to include in your class.
Note
Selecting a group of activities does not select all activities in the group. You must select each activity individually.
Expand or collapse the course outline if needed.
Graded activities that have already been added are marked
. To avoid
duplicate activity links and gradebook columns, do not import the same activity
twice.If needed, change gradebook syncing for specific activities.
By default, when you include a graded activity it is added to the Blackboard gradebook.
To remove an activity from the gradebook, clear Add to Gradebook.
To sync an activity to the gradebook without creating an activity link, first select Add to Gradebook and then clear the Add to Course checkbox on the left.
The content page displays all the links you have added to your Keyboarding in SAM course and activities.
If needed, you can reorganize the links in Blackboard.
