Improvements to AI Design Assistant Outputs – 3900.108
Blackboard Learn SaaS
Ultra Course View
Impact: Instructors
Updated Topic: AI Design Assistant
We improved the following auto-generation features of the AI Design Assistant to have faster and more complex outputs. Outputs for learning modules are more descriptive and focused on the topic than in 3900.106. Assignments, discussions, and journals also present more depth in relation to prompts and content selected by instructors. In addition, images for AI Conversation avatars are more realistic. Instructors can now save time both with generating content and using that content in their courses.
- Assignments
- Discussions
- Journals
- Test questions
- Learning modules
- AI Conversation avatars
- Keywords for Unsplash
Our latest optimizations continue the work we did in the December 3900.106 release to optimize rubrics.

Mastery tab in Gradebook availability controls - 3900.108
Blackboard Learn SaaS
Ultra Course View
Impact: Instructors, Administrators
Updated Topic: Mastery Tab and Course Settings
Administrators and instructors now have the flexibility to control the availability of the Mastery tab in the Gradebook. This configuration lets institutions align the use of the Mastery tab in Gradebook with their curriculum approach, while also giving instructors control over when and how it is visible to students.
Administrators determine whether the Mastery tab in Gradebook is available for use in courses at the institution-level. There are two ways to turn on the Mastery tab in Gradebook.
- Go to Tools in the Administrator Panel. Go to the Student Goal Performance Dashboard section. You must turn on Goal Performance. Set the availability of Goal Performance to ON.
- In the Administrator Panel, go to Course Settings. Select Course Tools. You must turn on Goal Performance. Set the availability of Goal Performance to ON.
Image 1. One of the options for turning the Mastery tab in Gradebook on and off is in Tools.
Image 2. Another option for turning the Mastery tab in Gradebook on and off is in Course Tools.
- Goal Performance set to locked: the Mastery tab in Gradebook will be in all gradebooks and instructors can’t control whether the Mastery tab in Gradebook is available or not.
- Goal Performance set to unlocked: instructors choose whether the Mastery tab in Gradebook is in their gradebooks. Instructors control this feature through the Course Settings options for their courses.
Administrators who initially turned off the Mastery tab in Gradebook must also make sure that the Goal Performance Course Tool is set to OFF. Otherwise, instructors will still have the option to turn the Mastery tab in Gradebook on.
Instructors can manage the availability for themselves and their students. The configuration includes the Instructor Visibility toggle and the Student Visibility toggle. The Mastery goal tab for instructors setting determines if the Mastery tab in Gradebook is available for the instructors in their course. The Mastery goal tab for students setting determines if the Mastery tab in Gradebook is available to students in the course.
With the release of Mastery tab in Gradebook visibility settings, the Mastery Tab in Gradebook default at the course-level is automatically set to OFF. Therefore, instructors must go to Course Settings to make the Mastery tab in Gradebook visible at the course-level.
Image 2. The options for turning the Mastery tab in Gradebook on and off are in Course Settings.
Administrators
Availability: Available for all Ultra courses.
Activation: None needed.
Configuration: System administrators can configure Mastery Tab in Gradebook visibility by going to the Administrator Panel, then Course Settings. Goal Performance is in Course Tools. If the Mastery Tab in Gradebook is turned on at the institution-level, instructors can configure Mastery Tab in Gradebook visibility in Course Settings.
Gradebook
Show/hide columns from instructors in the gradebook - 3900.108
Blackboard Learn SaaS
Ultra Course View
Impact: Instructors
Updated Topic: Ultra Gradebook
Instructors can now configure column visibility for their gradebook view, ensuring a cleaner and more organized workspace when grading. We've added a new Items Management page accessible from the Gradebook Settings panel. From this page, instructors can configure visibility for a single column selection or in bulk.
Visibility settings apply to the Grade page and Gradable Items page for non-student users (instructors, TAs, graders). The student view of any grading-related page is unaffected. If an instructor hides a column from their gradebook, that column continues to appear for students.
Administrators
Availability: Available for all Ultra courses.
Activation: Turned on by default.
Configuration: None needed.
Set default automatic zeros to off in the gradebook for new courses - 3900.108
Blackboard Learn SaaS
Ultra Course View
Impact: Instructors, Students
Updated Topic: Ultra Gradebook
The Assign Automatic Zeros for Past Due Work option is now turned off by default for newly-created Ultra courses. Existing courses are unaffected. Changing the default setting to off prevents students from automatically receiving zeros for past due assignments. Instructors can turn on automatic zeros for late submissions in the Gradebook Settings panel.
Administrators
Availability: Available for all Ultra courses.
Activation: Turned on by default.
Configuration: None needed.
Direct grade entry for assignments from the Grid view or Submissions page - 3900.108
Blackboard Learn SaaS
Ultra Course View
Impact: Instructors
Instructors can now enter assignment grades directly in the Grid view or Submissions page with improved accuracy and consistency. Previously, grades entered in these views were stored at the override level, which caused confusion as underlying attempts remained ungraded and continued to display the Needs Grading and New Submission flags. This update ensures that grades entered this way are properly mapped to the underlying attempt or submission when applicable.
All grades entered via file upload continue to be stored a override grades.
Assignments with Single Attempts
- Ungraded Attempts. When an ungraded attempt is found, the grade is stored at the attempt level, the Needs Grading and New Submission flags are cleared, and any auto-zero is removed.
- Graded Attempts. If the attempt is already graded, the existing grade is updated accordingly.
- Existing Overrides. If an override already exists, only the override is updated. No changes are made to the attempt grade.
- No Submission. If a student has not submitted an attempt, the grade is stored as an override.
Assignments with Multiple Attempts
- Ungraded Attempts. If all attempts are ungraded, the grade is assigned to the appropriate attempt based on the aggregation model:
- First: The grade is assigned to the first attempt.
- Last: The grade is assigned to the last attempt.
- All (Min, Max, & Average): The grade is assigned to the last attempt. All other attempts are excluded.
- Single Graded Attempt. For a single graded attempt, the existing grade is updated.
- Multiple Graded Attempts. If more than one attempt is graded, the grade is stored as an override. The Needs Grading and New Submission labels remain unchanged.
- Existing Overrides. If an override already exists, the override grade is updated.
- No Submission. For students with no submission, the grade is stored as an override.

Learn Core & Security
Manage course access from Course Settings – 3900.108
Blackboard SaaS
Ultra Course View
Impact: Instructors
Updated Topic: Course Settings (instructor), Managing Course Terms and Access (admin)
Instructors can now manage course access state settings through the Course Settings page. This change streamlines administrative tasks and enhances usability for instructors teaching courses.
Instructors or users with appropriate privileges can set the course state from Course Settings. This functionality was previously called Course is Open/Private and found in the Details & Actions panel.
Course access states are as follows:
- Open. Course content is available to students.
- Closed. Course content is not available to students. Previously called Private.
- Complete. No changes can be made by students or instructors.
Image 1. The Course Settings page now has a section called Course Access where instructors can set a course as Open, Closed, or Complete.
At the top of a course, the current course access state is displayed as a colored pill next to Course Settings. This change makes it easier for instructors to manage course states.
Image 2: At the top of a course, there is now an indicator that displays whether a course is Open, Closed, or Complete.
Additionally, instructors can access Course Settings from the Courses page. From the three dot menu, the instructor can select Course Settings.
Image 3. Course Settings option from the course card edit menu.
Administrators:
Availability: This feature is available for all Ultra courses.
Activation: The Course Access section is turned on by default, but only available to privileged users.
Configuration: These changes in the user interface require changes to role privileges, detailed in Course completion and new privileges for course access management – 3900.108. Instructors need the course settings privilege for Course Settings to display in their course: Course/Organization Control Panel (Customization) > Properties
New role privileges for course access management – 3900.108
Blackboard SaaS
Ultra Course View
Impact: Administrators, Instructors
Updated Topic: Roles and Privileges, Course Settings (instructors)
There are new and updated privileges to support the new Course Access section of the Course Settings page.
In this release, course access settings moved from the Details & Actions panel to the Course Settings page (refer to Manage Course Access from Course Settings – 3900.108). Course availability to students and course completion are clearly demarcated as separate states:
- Open/Closed. Course content is not available to students. Previously called Open/Private.
- Complete. No changes can be made by students or instructors.
This change makes course access management easier for instructors.
Administrators
Availability - Available for all Ultra courses.
Activation - The Course Access section is turned on by default but only available to users assigned the new privileges.
Configuration - The privilege allowing a user to change course availability and completion is now two separate settings. In the Administrator Panel, assign these new and updated privileges to users:
- Course/Organization Control Panel (Customization) > Properties, Availability (updated privilege). This privilege is now only used for opening/closing a course. Previously it gave a user access to opening/closing a course as well as completing/uncompleting a course.
- Change Completion Status (on/off) (new privilege). This privilege allows a user to mark a course as complete, and they can revert this change.
- Partial Change Completion Status (on) (new privilege). This privilege allows a user to mark a course as complete, but they can’t revert this change.
If users have already been given privileges to open/close and complete courses prior to this release with Course/Organization Control Panel (Customization) > Properties, Availability, you don’t need to change privileges to maintain their access to these functions. If a user has not previously been given these privileges, you need to set their privileges for opening/closing a course and for completing a course.

Updated Help Topic: Configure Course Catalog for a Subscription Model
Course Catalog can be set up for learners to use on a subscription basis. In this use case, learners purchase access to a catalog of courses rather than purchase individual courses. This model allows institutions to customize Course Catalog for their needs.
Learners
Learners can search the catalog for the subscription membership. When they purchase that offering, they will see the catalog of courses that is available with that subscription and be able to enroll in any of those courses.
Managers
The offering manager configures one offering as the subscription course and sets up other offerings to be viewable only by those learners who have purchased the subscription course. This is accomplished by giving learners who purchase the subscription course a specific institutional role, and allowing only learners with that role to view and enroll in the courses included in the subscription.
Image 1: Manager sets the offering as the subscription offering and assigns the role to the learner.
Administrators
Availability: Available for all Course Catalog courses.

Learn Core y Seguridad
Las sesiones de la aplicación móvil se renuevan sin necesidad de autenticación: 3900.106
Blackboard Learn SaaS
Vista delcurso Ultra, Vista del curso Original
Impacto: todos los usuarios
Tema relacionado: Bloqueo de cuenta
Después del lanzamiento de la aplicación Blackboard 9.11 el 6 de diciembre de 2024, los usuarios de dispositivos móviles deben actualizar la aplicación Blackboard en sus dispositivos para garantizar una funcionalidad adecuada. Si un usuario no actualiza su aplicación, aparecerá un aviso en rojo indicando que la sesión ha caducado.
Ahora, los administradores pueden definir el tiempo máximo durante el cual un usuario puede acceder a la aplicación móvil antes de que se le solicite que vuelva a iniciar sesión. Este límite de tiempo se controla mediante un token de autenticación. El token permite que la aplicación renueve automáticamente una sesión sin volver a autenticarse, siempre y cuando no haya caducado.
Para establecer la duración de un token, vaya al Panel de herramientas del administrador, seleccione Configuración de bloqueo de cuenta y, luego, Tiempo de espera del token de la aplicación móvil. De forma predeterminada, la duración del token móvil se establece en el máximo de 336 horas (aproximadamente 2 semanas). La configuración mínima es de 1 hora.
Imagen 1. Configuración del tiempo de espera de sesiones inactivas desde el Panel de herramientas del administrador
Información para administradores: El proceso de verificación que finaliza las sesiones inactivas se ejecuta cada una hora. Si selecciona Usar el mismo valor que el tiempo de espera de la sesión inactiva y la Actividad máxima es inferior a 60 minutos, es posible que el tiempo de espera de la sesión no sea preciso para ese valor. Sin embargo, el tiempo de espera de la sesión no superará una hora. Para certificaciones de seguridad, seleccione Utilizar el mismo valor que Tiempo de espera de sesión inactiva para finalizar las sesiones en el mismo plazo. Esta opción funciona independientemente del tipo de dispositivo utilizado para iniciar sesión. Utilice estos valores para el tiempo de espera de sesión inactiva: FedRAMP moderado: 30 minutos; IL4: 25 minutos.
