Blackboard allows you to create tests and surveys with a variety of question types. Tests are typically scored and the results are added to the Grade Center. Surveys are anonymous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tests scores can become part of student grades or tests can be configured as self-evaluations, which do not count towards a grade. Some question types, such as multiple choice, can be automatically graded. You can view test submissions in the Blackboard Grade Center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Unlike tests, survey responses are anonymous. You can see which students have responded to a survey, but you cannot connect survey responses to individual students. Survey responses can be downloaded and viewed in a spreadsheet.
