Blackboard (Plagiarism & tutorial) quizzes, permissions, and lockouts

Nelson has found out that there is apparently a new policy in uploading the plagiarism quiz to a particular class's Blackboard. The faculty member must contact BCTC either by email (helpdesk@baruch.cuny.edu) or
or by phone (646-312-1010) and ask them to add Nelson Santana as a TA (Teaching Assistant) in her class so that he has rights to upload the plagiarism tutorial.

Note that a high number of lockouts have been occuring when students take a quiz (plagiarism quiz, for example, or the library FRO quiz) in Blackboard.
Students often forget to use the submit button, or may have firewall issues on their home computers. Aisha and Nelson do try to clear them as soon as possible.
