Chapter 4: Preserving Blackboard Data
The first day has come and gone, the students are working,
and you are grading with speed and accuracy. In fact, you feel so confident
that you dare to create super hero names for yourself! "I am the
speed-grader!" Suddenly, a nemesis arises...
An unforeseen error has occurred in your Blackboard course, and the devastation has corrupted your student’s submissions, their access or worse...their grades are gone! With the gradebook struck such a severe blow, how can you ever hope to recoup the losses? There is always a way! ...at least, if you've preserved your course data appropriately.
In this fourth chapter, you will learn how to archive and preserve your course to prevent such a catastrophe from befalling you (even in the middle of a semester).
