ReadSpeaker app not available on welcome page
Hi there, Our ReadSpeaker app is not linking to the first slide on each course. Is this because it's html? This has been noted by our user testers and is a huge accessibility issue. Not to mention the additional money that we paid for this add-on. Can this be fixed?

Disabling Email, Instant Messages, and Alerts with Brightspace if you're using the Lockdown Browser
In a quiz's settings, under Timing & Display, you can disable Email, Instant Messages, and Alerts with Brightspace. If you're using the Respondus Lockdown Browser with the quiz, is it necessary or redundant to use the setting to disable access to email and instant messages? Is there any benefit to using the two settings…

How to see quiz preview results
I want to take a quiz I wrote that requires a lockdown browser and then be able to see which questions I got wrong. If I preview the quiz, and select the box to allow the preview attempt on the grade quiz page, nothing shows up on the grade quiz page, i.e., if I select the quiz/grade/attempts it reports "there are no…

Peer to Peer grading
Hello, We have a course that uses rubrics (in another system) for Peer to Peer grading. It is desired to move this exercise to Brightspace. Can we assign rubrics to users in the student role, giving them the ability to evaluate their peers?

Release Note Change History
Is there a better way to keep up with the change history of a release note update? I keep these on a slide show so I can color code what is pertinent and useful for my organization by role to be presented. The change history vaguely alludes to a change which makes me have to compare the new to what I have and read through…

Updating a written response quiz question
I had to add a feedback box to WR question after the students had already submitted the quiz. Now Brightspace says that that question is not in the quiz anymore. If I update all attempts, will the submissions, feedback, scores be removed from the student's record?

CUNY College of Staten Island
I have a few classes on Brightspace, but only one is giving me an error message and asking me to contact my administrator. I emailed the professor of Math 34 (31558) College Alegbra, and Professor Mormin says it's working correctly on his end. However, I still have no access to all the class materials as I did before. This…

How to access quiz answers "attempt details" from API?
I would like to see what users have answered to each question, so I can make a leaderboard. In one question they answer the name for the leaderboard. The page shows various ways of getting the number correct they have, but I can't see how to get the actual answers, or to see if which question a specific user got…

Flip cards stopped flipping?
Has anybody else noticed that Creator+ flip cards have lost the spinning animation in certain browsers? Clicking the card still goes to the other side, but instantly without the animation. I haven't been able to narrow it down to being on specific browser versions (I have a slight unconfirmed suspicion that it could be a…

Any experience with Learning Outcomes and Brightspace Data Sets?
We have set up our program learning outcomes in the Learning Outcomes tool within Brightspace. We don't have the premier version of Brightspace with the dashboards, so are stuck with the 14+ Brightspace Data Sets we need to join to help us collect information. Problem is: the Outcomes Details data set doesn't seem to be…

Outcome Naming Configuration
Hello! I am wondering if anyone has been successful in creating distinct student learning outcomes (SLO) in Brightspace by labeling them within each course. Presently, our system measures each SLO aligned to the parent code. Is there a way to write SLO 1 so it can be distinctly different in each course? New here and…

has anyone found a way to insert YouTube videos without the advertisements?
I used to use TedTalk videos, but the embed code no longer works in Brightspace, so I found the videos on YouTube. Unfortunately, I can't find a way to embed the videos without commercials. Does anyone have a solution?

Start date in module
I set start dates for each module. This week, though, I needed to delay the start of the module by one day, so I changed the start date over 12 hours before the original start time. However, the next day I got an email from a student who clearly could see the module even though the new start date is not here yet. I was…

Respondus quiz with Excel attachments
I'm administering a quiz using Respondus, and I'd like to provide students an Excel attachment which they will then modify and upload back into their quiz. I believe I can do this by creating a Written Response question, but then (I believe) students will have a copy of the excel which they can share with other sections.…
