Info

Instead of using a traditional Blackboard assignment, your instructor may ask you to submit a Google Assignment. Your submission type is an expected Google Drive format – specifically, using Google Docs, Google Sheets, or Google Slides. You can access all of these tools through your myUMBC account.

TIP: Before starting the submission process for your work, you may want to create and work on your assignment first in your Google Drive (whether it's a Google Doc, Sheet, or Slides), then come back into Blackboard to submit the assignment.

Excerpt

Tell Me

1. Locate the Google Assignment link in your Blackboard course. Click on it. *For Blackboard Ultra users, click Launch.

2. Click Sign in on the next page.

3. If prompted, enter your UMBC email address to sign in via myUMBC.

4. You are now in the Google Assignments Dashboard. Add file(s) from your Google Drive, or Create a new Google Doc, Sheet, or Slides presentation. You can also review the rubric of the assignment, if your instructor provides one. 

Info

If your instructor provides a template for the assignment, click on the template link in order to open your own copy into your Google Drive. Then you may make necessary edits before you submit the assignment. 

5. When you are ready to submit, click the blue Submit button.

6. Confirm your submission by clicking Submit. 

Warning

When you submit a Google Assignment, you will lose temporarily ownership access of the Google Assignment until your instructor returns it to you. This means you will not be able to make additional edits AFTER your submission, only once the instructor has returned it to you.
