Using the Blackboard Roster

How is the Blackboard roster populated?

• Students are assigned to Blackboard through registration (Banner integration)

Why should the roster be checked?

• Due to Banner integration issues students may:
  • Not be enrolled in the Blackboard course
  • Dropped from the course by the system
  • If a student chooses to drop the course they may not be removed from Blackboard

When should faculty check the roster?

• A week before classes start to ensure students have access
• After the Add/drop period
• After the NP process is complete
• After re-enrollment from the NP process

How do faculty check the roster?

• Compare Banner and Blackboard Rosters
• Open the Banner > Self-Service > Class Lists and Roster > View/Print Class Roster
• Open Blackboard > Control Panel > Users and Groups > Users > Show All
  • Do not use the Grade Center

Next Steps…

• If a student is on the Banner roster and not in Blackboard
  • Submit a Service Now ticket > Category (Learning Management) and Assignment Group (BIS-Managers)
• If a student is on the Blackboard roster and not in Banner
  • Send an email to GW-DistanceLearning@gatewayct.edu, include
    • Student Name (not ID)
    • CRN
