How do I transfer component marks from Blackboard to AStRA?

To map columns for marks transfer and to transfer your component marks

  1. Go to https://myadmin.aber.ac.uk
  2. Click on Grade Transfer

 

From this point, Components Marks Transfer will work exactly the same as previously.

The link to the Grade Transfer Tool in the Course Tools area of Blackboard (Astra::Map Columns) is currently not working

Search for the module in My Admin

 

  • Click Map on the column that you want to transfer

  • Click Fetch Preview to queue a transfer of the grades into the Preview & Transfer area. Use Save Mapping to store the mapping without requesting a transfer.
  • After 5 minutes, the option to Preview & Transfer will appear

  • In the screen that follows, the scores for the component will be in the far right hand column
  • Check that these are correct
  • If you are satisfied with the preview, scroll down to the bottom of the page and select Mark for Transfer
  • You’ll get a pop up acknowledging that Marks staged for next Transfer
