Change Scoring Method


Set the Scoring Method and Maximum Attempts

You will need to set the scoring method (i.e. first attempt, most recent attempt, average attempt or highest attempt) and the maximum attempts allowed (unlimited or a specific number of attempts).

All the student attempts will be collected, and you can view all the attempts for each student for each lesson. You can change the scoring method and maximum attempts at any point. If you want to allow your students only one attempt for the lesson, you need to set that option right away.

    1. Log into your Blackboard account and choose your course from the Courses dropdown menu at the top. At the top left, select Content.
    2. Click on the name of your lesson.
    3. The SoftChalk ScoreCenter screen appears. Use the Actions drop-down menu to select Change Scoring Method.change scoring method
