      • You will then be asked to choose whether Lumen OHM makes a new copy of the course you have linked to Blackboard, or if you want to use the existing one.
        1. If you are working from a Blackboard course copy you taught from previously, choose “Create a Copy.”
          or
        2. If this is the first time you have used this course in Blackboard, choose “Associate this LMS course”

      4. Enabling Grade Return Between Lumen OHM and Blackboard
      Goal: Enable Lumen OHM to send a grade to Blackboard

      Whether you are using a global connection or a local connection, you will need to set up each graded assessment so that it will return a grade to Blackboard.       

      • In Blackboard: navigate to a graded assessment, click on the drop-down menu by it’s title and click Edit

      • You will see the name of the assessment, URL, and LTI key and secret.
      • Navigate down to “Enable Evaluation,” and click yes
      • Enter the desired point value, it won’t really matter what value because OHM sends a percentage. You can also set due dates here.
