The diverse nature of this Inter-Professional Learning practice module demands that predetermined student groups (based on level, discipline and administration), sit one of two versions of the exam\u00a0(standard and extended) in a controlled environment at two set times on the same day. This makes for a complex administrative process, which in the previous version of Blackboard (CE8) demanded a high level of attention to detail and many test and mock set-ups for final assurance. However, in Blackboard 9.1 by setting a series of criterion to create &#8216;rules&#8217; and then &#8216;subsequent rules&#8217;, the same can be achieved in a much less demanding and complex way. Below is an example of the adaptive release criteria for two sittings of the same exam on the same day to selective students.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/learningedge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/130\/2012\/01\/adaptive-release-rules.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-850\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/learningedge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/130\/2012\/01\/adaptive-release-rules.jpg\" alt=\"Adaptive Release Rules Screen Shot\" width=\"748\" height=\"271\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/learningedge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/130\/2012\/01\/adaptive-release-rules.jpg 748w, https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/learningedge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/130\/2012\/01\/adaptive-release-rules-300x108.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/learningedge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/130\/2012\/01\/adaptive-release-rules-500x181.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 748px) 100vw, 748px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The following 5 minute video <a href=\"http:\/\/ondemand.blackboard.com\/r91\/movies\/bb91_adaptive_release_create_multiple_rules_for_content_item.htm\">Create Multiple Rules to Release a Content Item<\/a> from Blackboard\u2019s <a href=\"http:\/\/ondemand.blackboard.com\/\">On Demand Learning Centre<\/a>, takes you through the process to set up both simple and complex release criteria.<\/p>\n<p>With the ever-increasing adoption of technology enhanced learning, the demand to control the equitable access and release of teaching, learning and assessment contents becomes more and more fundamental.
