Evaluate - Assess Student Learning

Good morning everyone, When working with faculty needing to remove duplicate grade items can sometimes be a challenge. If the grade item is no longer associated with a quiz, assignment, or discussion, the process is simple. The issue occurs when an instructor accidently copies a course from a previous semester into a…

How can I verify that specific students have watched videos in an online asynchronous course? Is there a way to run a detailed report listing how many times individual students have accessed a posted video? This was something I was easily able to do with Black Board.

This is fundamental to group active learning. A group of students should be able to open a quiz assigned to them as a group, work on it together, submit it, and then have the grade be assigned to all members of a group. The labor involved in having to assign the quiz grade, when one group member submits it, to all the…

Is it possible to assign different grade weightings for the same assignment (e.g., an exam) within a course so that it counts as 15% of the final grade for one group of students and 20% for another group? My course includes honors and non-honors students, with different requirements for each group. I’ve set up groups and…

Is there any way to display images in-line for evaluation? I am an art professor using BrightSpace and I regularly have students submitting 5-10 jpg images which I then have to click and open each link individually to view the jpg. As you might imagine, this is arduous when assessing a large class. For PDF files, the…

How do I create a Random Block of 30 questions from a pool of 45 questions? Do I need to "pool" all "sections" the Question Library?

Hello! I am a SuperAdmin and teacher building up the portfolio feature for my school. I have created a sample classroom and set up learning standards/outcomes in the course. It's just about ready to go, except when I view my sample student's portfolio submissions I can't see the "Student & Parent/Guardian" section where I…

My university is using templates and so I do not have permissions to access many of the D2L functions. Currently we do not have access to the Rubric editor.

Are the standards available in one of the datasets?

I want to create a Pass/Fail 10 point discussion. I created the grade item first, so that I can make it pass/fail instead of numeric. When I created the discussion topic and assigned a point value and tried to link to existing, the "link to existing" option is greyed out and says that there are no items to link to. Why is…

I'm sure I'm missing an easy step but wanted to see how this can be done: I have say 50 questions from a chapter. Chapter has 5 sections, so 10 questions from each. They're not sectioned out, just a big file of 50 questions. I place all questions in my question library, and I create 5 sections, and place the respective…

I understand how to regrade a MCQ. However, i have come across a problem when it comes to multiselect questions - where someone gets .33333 for every right answer. One example is below: I have ticked the boxes at the bottom for the three correct answers. Students need all 3 for 1 mark, but can get partial marks for < 3. Do…

We had to adjust the marking in a quiz because it was not set up correctly and was being scored out of 1 (numeric value here for satisfactory), but the quiz really needed to be graded out of 20 and a grading schema applied. Luckily there are only three student attempts so far, and future ones should be correct. But how do…

If you have multiple markers, how do you set WHO can publish grades, to avoid markers accidently clicking publish instead of save draft when grading?

I have a Math assignment worth 25 points and I wanted to set up a weighted KTCA rubric that allows me to compute the percentage grade like this: Category 1: Knowledge - 5 points worth 25% Category 2: Thinking - 5 points worth 25% Category 3: Communication - 5 points worth 25% Category 4: Application - 10 points worth 25%…

In our current Blackboard courses, there are Calculated Numeric questions, where the student is prompted to type a numerical answer, and the instructor can specify a +/- range within which the answer will be considered correct. For example, if I want students to read the temperature displaying on a picture of a…

Hi there! One of our courses has an assignment where students must submit a peer reviewed document. We noticed that when the reviewer uses Track Changes in Word it doesn't show in the Assignment viewer, you have to download the document in order to see the Track Changes. Not every reviewer uses Track Changes so right now,…

How can I set up my gradebook so I can include all 6 items (quizzes) worth 20 marks each under an assessment category called online quizzes (which only equates to 25% of the total grade). Thank you in advance

Hi, We want to be able to track which of our learners have watched a video (and ultimately if they watched the whole video or just 10minutes), I can't find anything obvious in the User Progress documentation or the Brightspace data sets that is about Media Player. Was wondering if anyone knew if this was possible, and if…
