Several weeks ago, I sat in Blackboard's Curie conference room (named for Marie Curie, the famed researcher, double Nobel prize winner, and first woman to become a professor at the University of Paris) and listened to the results of our Client Satisfaction survey, an annual survey we conduct to better understand how we’re meeting our clients’… (Show more)

Is it possible to open a second attempt with a due date attached?

This makes… (Show more)

Report - Manually Added User

We have our Blackboard enrollments automatically synced with Banner. There's cases where an instructor will manually add a student to their course roster. Any way to get a report of this? Any queries that can be run?

I'm referring to the DSK of the course enrolment, not the user. Eg., if the course and user have DSK bann and you use bann for your integration enrolments, then the enrolments from Banner will have DSK bann. But if you manually enrol the user in the course, the enrolment DSK will be SYSTEM.
