There has been a problem discovered when opening a second tab in Blackboard from ‘my.vcu.edu’. This could result in session timeout when taking an assessment (test, quiz, etc)… This problem will be resolved with a planned upgrade on December 20th, 2017.
Workaround
Have students access Blackboard from ‘https://blackboard.vcu.edu’ instead of ‘my.vcu.edu’ when taking assessments.
Thanks for your patience and understanding.
