How to View Instructor Comments on Written Work It is very important that you review instructor comments on your graded essays. This way you can correct errors and do better on future essays. To see your grades, navigate back to your Blackboard course and follow these steps: Navigate to Essay Submission Links on Blackboard. Go to the Essay you want to review Click on VIEW/COMPLETE Click on the blue tab that says VIEW. When you get to your essay, you will see my comments on the essay itself. Then, on the right-hand side, click the icon that looks like a piece of paper with a pencil on top of it (the third blue icon down). My written comments to you will appear in a small window to the right of this. Above this, you can click to listen to my Voice Comments. How to Check Quiz Answers Go to TOOLS Click on MY GRADES Scroll down to the quiz you want to review and select. Under CALCULATED GRADE, click the blue score. The quiz will open and show answers.

The Writing Center supports writing across the curriculum by helping students better understand their writing projects and raising awareness of best practices. We work with any registered student who has a writing project, including those from the Social Sciences, Critical Thinking and Intensive Composition courses. Students can meet with a Writing Consultant starting on Friday, February 3rd, 2023. Early in the spring semester, we are offering students the opportunity to join us for an orientation, in which they can find out more about the resources we offer and how to access them, online or in-person. The earlier we can familiarize students with the processes involved, the more straightforward it can be for them to access these resources in times of need. We ask that you share the below schedule and registration link with your students and encourage them to attend: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScqklIagywTMx1piusp7JpGnESsKf-l1t91avtAeXuYAXZ4dw/viewform Orientations are available on: Wednesday, January 25th 10:00am Thursday, January 26th 11:00am Friday, January 27th 12:00pm Monday, January 30th 1:00pm Tuesday, January 31st 2:00pm Wednesday, February 1st 3:00pm Thursday, February 2nd 4:00pm Friday, February 3rd 10:00am
