Re: Grades: Internal Error
Hi all,
We (at Minnesota State) experience this issue on an intermittent basis. According to D2L, the issue occurs after reordering and/or deleting a larger number of grade items from the 'Manage Grades' screen. This causes the 'Enter Grades' screen to be out-of-synch and an internal error message displays.
Here's our workaround and resolution:
- Workaround: Copy the OU # of the affected course, go to a good course and navigate to the 'Manage Grades' screen, at the end of the URL replace the OU# with the one you copied, press enter, now you can access the 'Manage Grades' screen in the affected course.
- Resolution: From Manage Grades in the affected course, click More Actions > Reorder, click save without making any changes. You should now be able to access the Enter Grades page in the affected course.

Is it possible to embed a checklist rather than creating a link to it?
Hello,
I want to be able to embed a checklist rather than create a link to it when I create an HTML document or web page, which takes students away from the web page. Is this possible?
Thanks,
Yildiz
Re: How do you make the description of a check list visible to all users?
I've just discovered this thread because I'm having the same issue and I'd just like to say, with all respect @Rusha.S.831 that this isn't a case for a "Product Idea" submission. This is a case where the "preview" option is showing something completely differently than the published result which is a bug, not a feature request. This isn't the first time D2L has brushed off bugs as "just the way it works" and it's getting pretty frustrating.

Thank you for your reply! However I tried to log out and verified my account and logged back in, still can't access PIE.
Re: Product and Services Preview updates
As it isn't possible to comment on the post itself, a few observations:
SHIELD-9335 (unsubscribe button for notification emails)
Will there be any analytics on this so we can see if people are unsubscribing? Please ensure that the wording is clear enough that we don't get people unsubscribing from all announcements thinking they are just unsubscribing to a single course!
NTNGL-3023 (Third party data into Analytics builder)
Please consider adding Anthology Ally's API as a supported data source
BORG-3800 - TabId in quiz logs
Sounds interesting - I hope it's presented with enough context to prevent amateur Sherlocks jumping to the wrong conclusions and making unfounded allegations!
Re: Email to students who have not taken the quiz
Hi Kathy!
Thanks for bringing this question to the Brightspace Community. My name is Owen and I'd be happy to assist here.
You're going to want to set up a new intelligent agent to email students that have not completed a quiz. I've attached the following article as it walks you through creation/customization!
I hope this helps. Feel free to reach back out if you don't find what you need.
Cheers,
Owen

Re: How do we create a Fillable table question in D2L?
In my experience, this is not possible in BrightSpace. This is one of the major reasons that I have been calling for major improvements to the variety of quiz question types available in BrightSpace (and the simplicity of workflow to create them). This is especially true of the fill-in-the-blanks/cloze questions that you mention in your post. Our institution previously used Moodle in which creating this sort of question was (a) possible, (b) relatively straightforward, and (c) looked good. This is not the case with BrightSpace. If this is something your instructors need, I encourage you to consider supporting one or more of the many PIE items calling for this long-overdue improvement:
- Create New Generation NCLEX Question types for Quizzes (D6377)
- BrightSpace quizzes in need of critical updates (D9656)
- Simplify the process for creating a longer FIB with multiple blanks (e.g. cloze passages) (D7736)
- new multiple choice cloze, or multiple choice fill in the blank quiz question type (D931)
- Creating Quizzes - add ability to add combination of add blanks and add text to a question (D8936)
- Allow easier programming of fill-in-multiple blanks (Open cloze) (D5953)
- Improved Question Creation for Matching and "Fill in the Blanks (D7844)
When I try to take a quiz on my Chromebook on D2L it pulls up a blank screen and nothing loads
Whenever I try to take a quiz on my Chromebook, it just shows a white screen and nothing loads on it. I was able to take quizzes a while ago and then it stopped suddenly. I have tried fixing it but so far nothing has worked. I am able to take quizzes just fine on every other device I use, but I need to use my Chromebook so I can have audio in proctored exams (none of my other devices can do that). How should I fix this issue?
