Campaign Description

When building an assessment in Blackboard, there are lots of customization options available, including creating a forced completion requirement. Ngee Ann Poly had issues with faculty choosing this option and then students being unaware and subsequently locked out of the exam. The goal for this campaign was to inform faculty to avoid this option if possible.
