What does a notebook and pencil icon in the Gradebook indicate?

The notebook and pencil icon signifies that a test, survey or assignment is either in progress or has been saved but not submitted. Students may believe that they have submitted their work when they have, in fact, merely saved it. If students are able to still access the assessment or assignment in question, they should be instructed to return to it and click Submit, rather than Save.

The notebook and pencil icon may also appear when a student has clicked Submit, but the submission was not successfully received by the Blackboard server, generally as a result of network congestion. In these cases, the course's instructor or instructional staff will need to clear the assessment or assignment attempt before the student can access the assessment or assignment again.
