ACADEAUTO — BLACKBOARD EXAM AUTOMATOR v5.2

WHAT IT DOES
Create Blackboard Ultra assessment questions from a compatible JSON file, align
questions with learning outcomes, track automation impact, and run a final
automated quality review.

ACCOUNT CONNECTION (NEW IN v5.2)
1. Extract this ZIP. Open chrome://extensions, enable Developer mode, then
   Load unpacked and select the extracted AcadeAuto_Extension_v5.2 folder.
2. Disable previous versions. Reload any Blackboard tabs used with an older version.
3. Open the extension and choose Connect account.
4. Sign in at https://acadeauto.com and confirm Connect this extension.
5. Return to your Blackboard assessment tab and choose Refresh access.
6. Automation starts only when the administrator has approved your account.

Connections expire after 30 days. Use Disconnect then Connect account to renew.
Revoke lost or unused connections from https://acadeauto.com/account.
Internet access is required before starting/resuming automation. Stop remains
available. Revocation prevents future starts; it does not abort a running exam.

PRIVACY
Exam files and Blackboard DOM diagnostics stay in your browser. Only a random
extension connection token is sent to acadeauto.com to check account access.
Your Supabase login tokens and email stay with the website; they are not copied
into this extension. The shipped download excludes the supplied course exam.

QUICK START
1. Open Blackboard and navigate to the assessment editor.
2. Open the extension.
3. Choose your JSON exam file.
4. Click Validate Exam File.
5. Confirm the detected course code.
6. Click Start / Resume Automation.
7. Review the final quality-check result before publishing the assessment.

EXAM CREATION TOOLS
The extension includes optional tools to help prepare compatible exam JSON files:
- Create Exam Prompt
- JSON Template
- Instructions
- Advanced Prompt File

These files can be used with ChatGPT or another AI assistant to convert or create
an exam in the format expected by the extension.

AUTOMATION IMPACT
The extension shows:
- Clicks automated
- Estimated time saved

The underlying estimation settings are handled automatically and are not
presented as configuration options to end users.

SESSION BEHAVIOR
You can close and reopen the extension popup while working. The loaded exam,
progress, logs, review result, and counters remain available in the Blackboard
tab until the page is refreshed or navigated away from.

IMPORTANT
Refreshing Blackboard clears the extension's in-page session state but does not
remove questions already created in Blackboard. Always review the assessment
before making it available to students.
