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.
Add attendance from the gradebook You can add attendance when other grades exist. In grid view, you can add an attendance column next to an existing column. Select the plus sign to open the menu and select Add Attendance. In list view, select the plus sign wherever you want to add attendance and select Add Attendance.
This is a page welcoming you to the attendance tool. Use caution when clicking the Add Attendance Button. While we are happy for faculty to begin using attendance with their students, clicking the add attendance button causes an attendance column to be automatically generated.Aug 7, 2019
