Assessment Policy 13: All marks and results are provisional until they are ratified by the appropriate assessment board in accordance with the Departmental Assessment Board Policy and published via My Student Record.
13.1 Transferring grades from Blackboard to Student Records Services
-
Module Leaders must collate all grades for their module and clearly indicate the grades for each task identifying the tasks and the weightings as per the module descriptor.
- All individual task grades must be submitted according to the University Grade Descriptor and not pre-weighted according to the task weighting. If the final module mark is not aligned with the UGD that is acceptable.
- Complete sets of internally moderated grades must be submitted on a spreadsheet to Student Records Services by the marks submission deadline.
- The spreadsheet must be in Excel format, and it is recommended that the spreadsheet is downloaded from the Grade Centre in Blackboard.
Follow the instructions on preparing your marks spreadsheet
