- and others.
In cases such as multiple choice questions where an answer is either right or wrong, Blackboard will also mark the students’ work, provide feedback (determined in advance by the lecturer), and enter the score into the Grade Centre. The Instructor can then view students’ scores in the Grade Centre, and provide further support where needed.
See the guides below for further guidance on tests and quizzes.

Surveys
Surveys can be created in Blackboard in much the same way as online tests. The main difference is that with a survey there will not be right or wrong answers, and you are not concerned with – indeed you cannot see – individual students’ responses, but with the proportion of students who were satisfied/dissatisfied etc.
