Written Instructions. Blackboard Learn now has an Attendance tool. For each session, you mark students as present, late, absent or excused. A column is automatically generated in Grade Center and can be included in a “Totals” column for final grades.
Attendance reporting is only available in sessions with an end date and time. Based on the criteria you set, Collaborate tracks if a student is present, late, or absent from a session. Collaborate then sends that information directly to the Attendance page in your Blackboard Learn course.
In a course, select the Gradebook icon on the navigation bar to access your Course Grades page and view your overall attendance grade. Select Attendance to open up the panel to view details of each course meeting. You can view a summary and easily see how many class meetings you've missed.
