TAs will have access to Needs Grading and the grade center while graders can access Needs Grading, but not the grade center.

| There are two custom course roles in Blackboard that are available to support accessibility: The Accessibility Support course role has the same privileges as a Student, which allow staff from Student Disabilities Services to review course content for accessibility.
An Interpreter also has the same privileges as a Student. This special role is designed to support students with hearing impairments as identified by Student Disabilities Services. Please consult the Student Disabilities Services office for more information about using these roles. |
Attempting to manually enroll or delete students from your course may repopulate them into your shell. If enrollments in your Blackboard shell appear off, please submit a ticket via RT. |
