Re: Possible to restrict who can see specific modules?
Hello @Kay.H.645
I would suggest that you consider 2 possible options.
1) You can create multiple sections in the course and assign one group to one section and the other to the second.
You can test in the sandbox if changes in one section's content will affect the other, but to the best of our knowledge, it should not happen.
2) You can create different release conditions for the first two modules by making them visible only after passing some quizzes, which may be different for the two groups. The remaining modules may be bound by release conditions to the first two.
Re: Is there any way to create paragraphs with the information entered on the back of flip cards?
Hi Sophie,
I have tested several ways of accomplishing this with Creator+, and it does not appear to be possible at this time. The fields are plain text only so do not allow any additional HTML ad this time. I would high highly recommend adding this as a PIE item. I'd also like to note that have lengthy content on the back of the card would result in a very long card on the front side and can look a little odd to the learner. An alternative as well would suggest using some shorter copy in the TITLE of the back of the card, and then using the rest of the content in the body area.
Re: Rubric Overall Score
I don't think it's possible at the moment. What people typically do if they don't want to use that section is reduce it to one column, so that it just contains some text to indicate that the marking is complete, or to indicate where the learner should see their general feedback.
It is something that's occasionally been requested before. If you go to the Product Idea Exchange via the Quick Links in Community, and search for D2428 or D9009, you'll find a couple of previous suggestions you can upvote or comment on.
Re: Randomized assignments
Hi, @Johann.W.160!
I´ll divide your question into two parts:
Random assignments
I´ll recommend you explore the Groups tool to tag the Students in many groups. Then, when the student is assigned to a group (The student also can select the groups available and pick one), and using release conditions, the group may be related to specific assignments and dates. Surely, you´ll need to work in the Grades tool to create manual exemptions or use a Gradebook using formula for the Grade calculation based on the student´s assignments.
Peer evaluation
You may configure a peer evaluation using Videso assignments in Bongo. this is an LTI tool that is included in Brightspace in the standard version. To create peer assessments, you´ll need to validate if you have the premium version
Turnitin issues
Please note that the V2 integration was built and is directly managed by D2L. A fix has been identified and will be made available soon. If you want further information and haven't already created a ticket, please contact the D2L support team.
Re: Is there a way to get a report of who deactivated which users?
Hi Suvanjan,
No, the Users Brightspace Data Set tracks whether or not a user is active/inactive - but does not track which users may have made that change.
Please log a Case with the Support team to investigate if this issue is critical for you.
Hope that helps!
Is there a way to change the default programming language for code samples?
Re: Creating Personality Quiz
Hi Samar,
You could possibly use Survey Branching dependant upon the questions being asked. See
Creating a tool in Articulate 360 would also provide you an alternative approach.
Hope that helps!
Re: PIE Link Broken?
Hi Jonathan,
I recently had the same experience but the advice below from D2L (specifically point 2 ) resolved it. Hope you find it helpful,
Jennifer
"Most PIE Access problems can be resolved by following/confirming that the user is taking the following two steps:
1. PIE can't be accessed directly. They must login to the D2L Brightspace Community first.
To access PIE:
- Login to the Brightspace Community
- Select 'Product Idea Exchange from the navbar or from the quick link menu found on the Community Homepage
This article provides more information on accessing The Product Idea Exchange (PIE)
2. Please confirm that they've selected a Brightspace Organization in their Community Profile.
Typing a name in the organization field will prevent them from being able to connect with the Learning Center and PIE. They must select the org via the dropdown menu.
This article provides more details on updating their profile to select an organization."
