Displaying Final Grades
I'd like all my students to be able to view their current, ongoing total points earned. I've acheived this in my 428 class, as indicated by the eye icon, but in the 114, the icon is still crossed off. Unfortunately, I'm not sure how I achieved this in 428, and when I compare all the settings I can think of, they seem set…

Dropbox sticky note delay
Hi! There is a delay in typing when using the sticky note feature when annotating assessments in Dropbox. In particular, once the sticky note is opened and I start typing, the cursor moves back to the beginning of the word or sentence a second later. It is a slight delay but frustrating as it often requires retyping each…

In either classic or new content experience, if we create our syllabi using the Brightspace HTML tools - can we then export the syllabi in a format that could be uploaded to a database?

LTI for Salesforce.
We need to integrate Brightspace with Salesforce using an LTI tool to display a Salesforce page within Brightspace. We have configured LTI in Brightspace for integration with Salesforce.However, we don’t see a connector available to establish the LTI connection with Salesforce. Any guidance on this would be helpful.

D2L Course Page freezing
Has anyone else had any trouble with the D2L course page freezing in Chrome browser? This has happened to me three times now, and each time it has been in a different page of my course. So far it has happened in Content, the course homepage, and in Assignments. The navbar and the scroll bar both disappear and I am unable…

Template path in NCE
Hi, We're moving from the Classic experience to the NCE shortly. Currently we rely on using the Template Path option in the Display Settings (see ). This provides the option to limit the templates visible to those we've provided in the File Store and can be conveniently used from the Template dropdown menu in the editor.…

How are you applying late penalties for late assignment submission?
Hi everyone, Given that an automatic late penalty is not a feature in Brightspace (and not gaining much traction in PIE), I am curious how other institutions/organisations are currently applying deductions for late submission penalties, please? Mostly, our academics are calculating this manually, but this is time-consuming…

Outcomes Evaluation
We have an issue where our outcomes data does not automatically populate based on the entered grade. In the screenshot shown, you will see the student received 100%, but the met/not met outcome criteria is not automatically marked. Instructors have to go into the assignment evaluation tool and manually mark each scale for…

Rubric attached to WR question
When grading, I can't see the rubric to use to assess the question. When I go to manage the quiz, the rubric is definitely attached to the question. When managing the rubric, it is definitely published. But when I go to grade an attempt, the rubric is not there.

0-4 Grading Schemes
We have several large departments that are using and want to use a 0-4 style grading scheme (Based on the book Grading For Equity). We've found a clunky way to almost accomplish this with a custom grading scheme, but it still relies on percentages (and makes them visible), defeating the original intent. Has anyone found a…

I do not see a menu bar at the top of for instance pdf or office files when added as content pages
Hi, I noticed that recently (I can't quite remember when) I don't see a menu bar anymore when vieuwing pdf or Office files in Brightspace. There used to be a menu bar at the top, as shown in the following image. But now I don't see it anymore. Is this feature or a bug? Perhaps a Brightspace update removed that menu bar.…

Checklist vs Content
My students and I find the checklist far more useful than the content area. The students can check off in the checklist when they have completed an assignment. I know that manual check-off is available in content, but then conditional release does not work. Any suggestions?

Scopes Table used in LTI Advantage tools?
We are developing a tool that is registered as an LTI Advantage. In this tool we authenticate and authorize the user, then we try to call some API endpoints (with the authorization header applied). To be able to call our selected API endpoints, we have to authorize the user specifying the right scopes. Our question is: How…

SSO Debugging
We have SSO configured on our Live and Test Brightspace instances, usually without any problems but very occasionally some people report that they get the "There was a problem processing your authentication". These users all have active Brightspace accounts. I am assuming that the issue is that ADFS is sending the SAML…

What does completed checklist actually mean?
I have checklists that include quick links course assignments. Does the student need to submit a completed assignment to be able to check the item ? Or, can students simply check everything on the lsit and move on? I'm attempting to set up a release condition that a student needs to complete the checlist to get to the…

Syllabi creation natively in Brightspace vs integrating a third-party syllabus management tool?

How do I make the display fit a now-standard widescreen monitor?
The Brightspace screen only covers about the center 60% of my laptop screen or monitor, leaving blank swaths on the right and left as if it were created for a squarish screen from the 1990s. I have not yet found the right setting to change that to fit today's screens, which are all wider than they are tall. This is a…
