Grading quizzes
I am manually grading written answers for final exams for four classes. I classified the exams as Quizzes. When I was grading the exams for one class, Brightspace entered every grade as a 100 even though I deducted points from many students' answers. The other three classes are working properly. Please advise how I should…

For just one student in my class, the "drop lowest grade" option is not dropping the lowest grade (it is dropping a 75 when there is also a 0), I have many students where it is working fine, so I'm not seeing where it is my error. I have another student whose grades are very similar (2nd lowest grade is on same assignment…

problem with doc permissions after creating course offering from template
Hi everyone, This is the process I use to set up a new course offering based on a template. I'm having problems with the occasional documents where the permissions don't seem to be consistent across all users, and I can't work out where to change them either in the template or the offering. Hope this makes sense: Settings…

Final Calculated Grade doesn't match sum of displayed grade item contributions?
When viewing a student's Final Calculated Grade breakdown, the individual grade item contributions (shown as "X / Y% of final grade") add up to a different total than the Final Calculated Grade displayed at the top.

Faculty Enrollment behavior
Our course offerings all have corresponding course sections as children. We use IPSIS to enroll from the SIS. Our script enrolls both faculty and students to the course section of the parent course offering. We don't explicitly enroll anyone to the course offering, itself. However, I have found that any time a Faculty role…

Attempt 1 grade re-sent to gradebook when attempt 2 is submitted but NOT published
TL;DR Why does attempt 1 grade get re-sent to gradebook when student submits attempt 2 (overwriting manually entered grade in gradebook) even though the attempt 2 grade is not published? The quiz is all Written Response questions and auto-publish attempt results is not checked. Synchronize to grade book on publish is…

Section titles/text in Question Library do not update in Quizzes (and vice versa)
I recently discovered that when the Section Title or Section Text is changed in the Question Library, the updates do not carry over to any Quizzes where that section is used. Similarly, if the text is edited directly within a Quiz, the changes do not sync back to the Question Library. This behaviour is different from how…

Brightspace Attendance
You have an Attendance feature, however it doesn't appear to have any function: it can't be used as a Release Condition for a Quiz, for example. This would be ideal for our purposes, allowing Attendance to control access to quizzes.
