Blackboard Submission Instructions
Submitting your assignment to Blackboard SafeAssignment is an alternative option to emailing or coming in to the Writing Center for a face-to-face appointment. In order to submit your assignment to SafeAssignment in Blackboard, follow these step-by-step instructions.
Step One: Login to Blackboard.

*If you have not previously self-enrolled in the Writing Center course in Blackboard, you need to do so. Click this link for the step-by-step instructions.*
Step Two: Submit your assignment.
Once logged in to Blackboard, the courses you are enrolled in will be in the top box on the right hand side of the screen.
Click on the WBU Writing Center course.
On the left-hand side of the next screen, click on “Submit a paper.”
On the next screen, click “Submit your paper.” Choose “OK.”
On the next screen, you’ll find there are three different sections labeled “Question 1, 2, and 3.” Each section has different functions. You can type out the general instructions for your assignment in the box provided under Question 1, or you can attach them under Question 2. Either way, you need to provide your email address under Question 1. Attach your assignment under Question 3.
How to attach an assignment:
Under Question 3, click “Browse” to “Look in” or search for the appropriate drive (A: or C: , etc.) in the pop-up box.
After selecting the correct drive, select the correct “File Name” (your paper) in the pop-up box, click on it, and then click “Open” near the bottom of the box.
Confirm the assessment submission, and then click “Submit.”
Feedback:
As soon as the tutor is finished making comments about your paper, he or she will email you at the address you provided under question one on the submission page.
To view the tutor’s feedback, you will need to check the “Feedback Status” under the “Submit your paper” tab.
