Significant Change to Blackboard Gradebook

Everything you need to prepare for the new Gradebook Grid experience.
Key Features of the Grid Experience
- Grade Details Panel: Clicking any grade cell opens a persistent side panel. You can view submission details, assessment feedback, grader notes, and posting status without navigating away from the grid.
- To Do Panel: A "To Do" panel replaces the old, full-page Overview tab, allowing you to see what needs grading and posting without losing your place in the grid.
- Accommodations & IDs: Course-level accommodations now appear automatically in the Grade Details panel, and student IDs occupy their own sortable column.
- Safer Deletion: Removing a gradable item now requires you to confirm the exact item by name, complete with a warning banner to prevent accidental data loss.
