When Crocdoc ends, what will happen when students upload documents via the assignments option in Blackboard? Will professors be able to see the document, or will they have to download the file in order to see the contents?

You are so organized!!!!!
Hi Wendy,
The answer is covered in the information Toni shared below, but just to make sure we are clear: if any Learn instance is not upgraded to a supported version that offers the New Box View functionality AND the New Box View service is not enabled by January 15, 2018, then the Crocodoc interface will show an error (we are working on a user-friendly error/splash page to ease any anxiety, something like "contact your Administrator"). Users will still be able to download student submissions to view them however.
Thanks,
Trey Buck
Wendy Torres,
Here is information on this with a detailed presentation from Trey Buck from Blackboard.
@Crocodoc to New Box View Webinars for October 2017
Additionally there are further announcements and communication on this in the
System Administrator Community
Like this from Szymon Machajewski New Box View - tutorials, videos, docs for faculty and students
I hope that this helps as I can understand the process can be confusing this all will be relayed to instructors and students.
Cheers,
Toni P.
