Formula grade items - weighted?
I'm trying to create a gradebook item that gives the maximum of two other grades, and this new grade should be worth 30% of the course grade. So far, I am suspecting that formula items can't be given weights in BS's weighted grading system, and this seems to result in this item being completely ignored in my course grades…

Delayed feedback
I'd like to be able to delay showing correct/incorrect responses to a question until the learner has attempted a quiz/question a set number of times. This would let me give them feedback after they've given honest effort without immediately showing the answer. Does anyone know how to do this?

Flag imported questions that don't work?
I'm discovering that many (maybe most) of the thousands of questions I have created in moodle do not import properly into brighspace. By that, I mean they don't work. Most classes of questions, in fact, don't work. And there is no clear, on-by-default way to know that after importing. Brightspace cheerfully tells me it has…

Team-based quizzes?
Can Brightspace do team-based quizzes (as in team-based learning, or TBL)? This would involve having one quiz attempt active, with scores applied to each person in a group. With Blackboard and Moodle I did this by having each team (5-10 students) choose one member as the quiz-taker of record (QTOR, I guess), then The QTOR…

Where can I find the Criterion ID and Levels Ids for a rubric I created?
I have created a rubric with only two levels: Perfect (the photo uploaded in the assignment has content) and Unacceptable (the photo uploaded in the assignment is blank). I used a Holistic rubric because I just wanted to use a single criterion (content or no content) for this type of assignment. This is the code I wrote in…

New variables in arithmetic questions for each new attempt
When using the arithmetic questions in a quiz with multiple attempts, the same variables appeared each time. In the preview, different variables appear, but when completing the test as a student (ie professor status changed to student) the variables remained the same. We are aware that new variables can be generated for…

Competency assessment type
Can competencies be linked to an assessment type other than rubric or numeric? I've experimented with adding some pass/fail grade items to my gradebook; however the competency structure tool only shows numeric and rubric as possible grade types. Can any other grade item types be used?

Access Previous Course Submissions
Is there a way to access previously taken courses (and now ended) submissions? I am looking for a document in my Drive that I cannot find that was submitted Fall 2023 for a course.

Can't delete items from gradebook
I have several items that made their way into a course gradebook unintentionally and I am unable to delete them. I have been able to delete other items successfully from the gradebook in the 'manage grades' page; however, some of the items are greyed out, and can't be selected for delete (image below). The strange thing…

How do I generate/download user content progress report?
I am an instructor. I would like to find out which students have been visiting which pages in my Brightspace course. I can access this information in two ways: For an individual student, I click "Roster" and then select "View progress" from the drop-down menu next to the student's name. I then click "Content" and navigate…

D2L quiz release working for some students, not all
I set up a quiz with the release conditions to visit lecture materials/modules. All students have visited the right materials at this point, but only some students can see the quiz. I've checked the release conditions, checked that students have visited the right content, so I don't understand why D2L isn't showing them…

How can I get the overall feedback that I give on a quiz to show in the stuent's grade report?
This is so frustrating. I would like the students to be able to see what I write as feedback for a quiz in the same place that they look for all the other feedback, which is their grade report. I simply cannot figure out how to do this. Is this possible? If not, I hope that they are working on it. What good is a quiz if…

Rubrics not appearing as graded
Hello All our Rubrics that have been graded in Brightspace are no longer appearing as graded for our students. See first screenshot from a learner’s account stating Criterion score as nil/ 10. Then see second screenshot from an admin account showing Criterion score graded as 10/10. This hasn’t been a problem in the past,…

How to differentiate SUBMITTED Evaluations & Quizzes from opened?
Hello, we are not clear. When a student opens an Evaluation or Quiz, Brightspace shows instructors an orange dot to indicate that the Evaluation or Quiz was opened. But once a student SUBMITS the Evaluation or Quiz, meaning the Evaluation or Quiz can now be marked, we do not see any differentiation nor notifications, just…

Quiz: Is there anyone working on alternative questions for second quiz attempt
We have a faculty who would like to give students a chance to improve their quiz attempts by giving them a second chance to learn what they did wrong and then retake the exam (with a new set of questions) on the very same chapters/content areas. He sees from the data that currently students view the questions they get…

access to information on student engagement with feedback
Within the sector, there is interest in student engagement with feedback. Using the tools in D2L it is not possible to capture all the ways that a student may have accessed their feedback. Do you have plans to look at this as it is a huge hole in your analytical provision?
