WeBWorK--Blackboard Integration

Preamble

Beginning in January 2017, the Department's WeBWorK server will allow direct login via Blackboard. New features include:

  • automatic creation of WeBWorK student accounts from Blackboard;
  • single login via Blackboard for all conforming usernames;
  • automatic grade passback from WeBWorK to Blackboard;
  • assignments are assigned once visible.

What remains the same:

  • WeBWorK courses are created at the request of course instructors by the department WeBWorK administrators;
  • TA/professor accounts must be manually created on WeBWorK;
  • assignments are created, opened and closed on WeBWorK.
