How do we create a Fillable table question in D2L?
We previously moved from Blackboard to D2L. One of my Math professors ran into an issue creating a fillable table quiz question in D2L as he had always used in Blackboard. Where the student can enter the answers directly into the table. Is this possible in D2L?

Why is Brightspace changing how my PPT file is displayed?
I recently uploaded a set of PowerPoint slides into a course, but Brightspace has rearranged how the content is arranged so that now the text is overlapping. I can get around this by changing all of my slides to PDFs instead, but I'm curious if anyone knows why it is doing this.

Edit the instructions for sorting in Creator+
Above are the built-in instructions for the Creator+ sorting element. I can't seem to find a way to edit this text myself. Is it possible for us to make changes to this, or is this an dev task? The suggested revision is for the Tap instructions. "Select a sortable item. Select a category and drop the sortable item."…

Embedding self-assessment in a page in a lesson
I'm creating a quicklink to a multi-select self-assessment. My first problem is when I'm testing the link it goes to the Editing view instead of the self-assessment itself. Is there something in the self-assessment I need to enable to have it show as I want students to see it? My second question is if I can generate embed…

Assignment submissions past the due date
Assignments submitted after the due date should not overwrite the 0 (or other grade) put in at the due date. This defeats the whole purpose of having due dates on assignments.

Why is there a 1 minute limit on audio created with "Video Note"?
Can someone please explain the rationale for limiting an audio recording to 1 minute when using "Insert Stuff" - "Video Note" (then toggling to "Audio only"? Students have the ability to record for 30 minutes if they record video but only 1 minute if they record audio. This video shows what it looks like. The same is true…

Please address problems with pagination in quizzes
I cannot understate how frustrating it is to not be able to use "Sections" to break up my quiz content where I want. Not everyone wants to use 5 or 10 questions per page. Not everyone wants a break after every question. Not everyone wants one long page of questions. The rigidity of the current system is having a…

importing with course components take too long
My understanding is that if I try to export/import a quiz without selecting Course Components, then the embedded figures will not come through. Maybe this has been fixed; I don't know. But when I select Course Components, it seems like it tries to export/import all of the components of the course, not the ones just…

Surveys
Hello we would like to implement the surveys tools for course evaluation (feedback).

Self-assessment
Self-assessment works well with the classic experience, but when I switch to the new experience, the system displays a message that the content cannot be rendered. I tried to delete the self-assessment and create it again, I tested it several times, but it didn't work. Do you have any recommendations please?

Can teachers mark a student's assignment as completed (like an override)?
Sometimes students submit work outside the requested method (e.g. on paper instead of file submission). Is there a way I can mark their assignments as completed, so that it no longer shows on their to-do list after I publish a mark and give feedback? It seems silly to have an incomplete/unsubmitted assignment that has been…

Adding third party tools in Brightspace Assignemnts
What is the best practice for adding third party tools in the Brightspace Assignments tool? Should faculty use the Insert Stuff button or the Add Existing Activity button at the bottom of the page? Which will interact better with the gradebook and cause less confusion for the students?

If students submit word documents in an assignment with anonymous marking turned on, is it possible for the instructor to download the word doc, and in the Word doc Properties menu see the student information? Or, does Brightspace anonymize the Word doc Properties details as well?

Is there anything equivalent to the Blackboard WIKI?
I am looking for a way in Brightspace for students to share information with one another, such as posting a description of their class project which would evolve over time and provide opportunites for feedback and collaboration. I used the WIKI in Blackboard, but don't see anything obviously similar in Brightspace. Any…
