Hello,

In my experience, as soon as you open the file from the Brightspace shared files area with the edit command, those {variables} become unusable.

Once the file is uploaded, do not open it! If you do, you'll have to re-upload the file for it to work. I haven't found a simpler workaround for this, I hope someone else can offer another solution on this thread!

Hi @Rachel.T.9262!

Thank you for reaching out to the Brightspace Community!

Brightspace doesn’t support displaying both a percentage and a letter grade within a single grade scheme.

That said, you can get close by using Student Display Options:

1. Go to Grades
2. Navigate to Settings
3. Open the Org Unit Display Options tab
4. Under Student View Display Options, locate Grade Details
5. Check both:
   • Points grade (or weighted equivalent)
   • Grade scheme symbol
6. For the Final Calculated Grade, ensure it is set to use a Letter Grade scheme

If your gradebook totals 100%, the numeric value will appear as #/100, which effectively gives students the equivalent of a percentage alongside the letter grade.

I’ve included a screenshot below to show how this would appear in the Gradebook.

We hope this helps, and please feel welcome to reach out with more questions.

Best regards,

Hello Heather,

Thanks for reaching out with your question regarding HTML content usage across your course shells.

The best dataset that you can refer to for obtaining insight on HTML content usage, is our Content Objects dataset: https://community.d2l.com/brightspace/kb/articles/4713-content-data-sets#content-objects

It logs every content object that was created and indicates the ContentObjectType and the OrgUnitId where the content resides in. By noting the unique number of org units in the report, you will be able to identify how many different org units use HTML content within the course.

I hope this information helps. Kindly let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.

Best regards,
Abrar

Hello @Lynn.L.12, thanks for your question!

At a minimum, these would be the required permissions for the Organization and Course Offering org unit types for your instructor role to have access to the create option for badges and certificates:

Hopefully this is what you'll need. Please do let us know if this helps solve the concern, or if they are still not seeing the create option.

Please note that you can exclude the grade item of the quiz from the Final Grade Calculation by following these steps:

From the Grades tool > Manage Grades tab, select the grade item of the quiz created for the student and then Edit the grade item. Then, from the Properties tab navigate to the Grading section and select the option Exclude from Final Grade Calculation. With this option, the grade item will be excluded from final grade calculation.

Additionally, you may go to the Restrictions tab and select the option Hide from Users so this grade item will not be visible to students.

You may find in our following documentation further details related to excluding a grade item from the Final Grade Calculation:
