The Teaching and Learning website is divided into four main sections:
UoN Templates is a collection of documents, developed at the University of Newcastle, which you can use to give a consistent style to your course materials. The template also provides menus and navigational links between files. After modifying the template with your course materials you can distribute it to students via Blackboard, web, or CD-ROM.
Rubric Templates developed for the assessment of five common types of assignments and for all other types of assessment. Download an Excel file, modify it for your assignment, enter student marks, see class summary statistics, distribute to students. UPDATED Version 2 (7 March 2007) allows you to import student names and ids from a file exported by Blackboard Gradebook. It can also export student names, ids and scores from the rubric to a file ready for import into Blackboard Gradebook.
