Top 6 tips for the end of Semester
Review these tips to help your end-of-semester assessment processing go smoothly.
Check the history of mark changes
Grade Centre logs a record of all changes made to marks during the semester. At the end of the semester, use the View Grade History tool to produce a report showing all changes and comments, to confirm validity and check for errors
Accessibility and Study Hacks - Digital Essentials module
The Accessibility and study hacks module (part of Digital Essentials) introduces students to creating accessible content and productivity tools for study and life. It is designed to be embedded into courses so students can find the information they need, when they need it.
Turnitin Paper Request Treatments
Paper View Requests from Turnitin users outside UQ are now disabled at the request of the Digital Learning Sub-Committee. This does not affect accessing matches within UQ sources which continues to work automatically.
Blackboard upgrade from 25-31 December
Learn.UQ (Blackboard) will be upgraded to Blackboard Learn SaaS between 25 and 31 December 2020. The system will be unavailable during this period. Staff will be granted access for testing and all impacts will be communicated.
