Q: How do I know if I have submitted my assignments and/or tests correctly?

For assignments and tests, you can view your submissions in the “My Grades.” In the case of an assignment, click on the name of the assignment to see the details of the submission. In the case of a test, click on the name of the test and then click on the score or the yellow icon in the “Calculated Grade” column to see the details of the submission.

If you are unable to see the submissions in the above steps, then the assignment/test is not set up to allow you to see the submissions, please contact your instructor.

If you are unable to click on the name of the assignment/test and you see a blue icon in the “GRADE” column of your “My Grades”, then the submission was unsuccessful and you need to retake the attempt.

Q: I clicked File icon. But nothing happened.

A: Click the name displayed beside the icon.

Yes. Although the default language for Bb9 is Japanese, you can change it.

  1. If you have already logged in to Bb9, click the power icon in the upper right corner to log out from Bb9
  2. Click the globe icon at the upper left corner on the Bb9 log in page
  3. Choose English in the language list

Then the system messages will be written in English. However, this change does not affect the course contents prepared by teachers.

Q: I cannot find a course for my class.

Although all teachers can create Bb9 courses, in reality, some teachers do. Therefore there might not be a course for your class.

Q: What is WebCT?

Prior to Bb9, WebCT has been used as the online learning support system in Hiroshima University. It still works as of March 2014. It has almost similar function to Bb9. Therefore some teachers may not distinguish between them and may call Bb9 WebCT.

Q: There are many documents on Bb9. It costs me a lot to print them out!

See the documents, which you think you may not need to print, on Bb9. Or you can print them with 2-up, which means two pages in a sheet. With 2-up or 4-up, you can save costs.

Q: I do not know how to use Bb9.
