In Examview go to File > Export > Blackboard 7.1 – 9.0…​ saves as ZIP file
Here are the instructions to import those files into Blackboard. 

  1. In Blackboard go to the left side Class Tools > Tests, Surveys and Pools > Tests (on the right side) > Import test (import the .zip file created from examview)

    In Blackboard go to class content (on the left) > Assessments (on the right) > test and then select the test you just imported


 Jason Selchert recorded this for me to help schedule your test.

SafeAssign (like turnitin) is available for teachers to use in their Blackboard Learn courses.

If you’re interested in learning more about SafeAssign, Blackboard posted a short YouTube video tutorial about it


Benefits: class is an online community, login is their email, you can import examview tests and they are graded within blackboard, it does work on an ipad.
