These avenues offer courses and articles about accessibility to enhance accessibility knowledge and a group of accessibility enthusiasts to stay connected with.

We have had a number of students frustrated when trying to find course resources. They have requested a search function within the course to enable them to search for resources, documents etc. Is this a possibility? I can't find anything to suggest it is.

Hi there, We have a quiz that is in progress. One question requires a numerical value and the acceptable range is too narrow. We want to increase the range to +/- 50000. If we edit the live quiz it will create a new version of the question that will only be available to those that have not already started the quiz. When we…

How do I upload a new version of a scorm file?

Why would the following be happening. The module shows as being completed, the SCORM has the checkmark beside it as well, but then it shows as the SCORM was never visited. The release conditions on this course are for all the SCORMS to be visited, so it's not releasing for this learner. I've noticed this a few other times…

Hi, I am trying to make an API request to fetch attendance of the students for a particular course for a specific date / or for a specific date range. I searched through the API documentation and the github repository to get the proper endpoints and the payload (if required) but I am unable to get any information for my…

Help! I'm helping a math instructor who uses graphs like this: With parabolas that have x & y intercepts, a vertex and axis of symmetry, all in different colors! Anyone have any ideas on how to make this graph accessible?

The NavBar for all teachers in my organization has disappeared; not from their individual courses, but from the main page. They like the "Quick Eval" button, which does not show up anymore at the top (in NavBar) but it does show up as a widget below. The teachers would like it placed back up, as a NavBar. Thank you Tiana…

Where is the Navbar?

Basically, same request as this one but with a link, rather than a page- I want 1 link to manage, appearing in multiple modules. While I'm at it, maybe should be a separate question, but what is the point of the links created in the Course Admin>Links tool discussed here in the guide? It says we can use these links in the…

I'm wondering if its possible to have 2 separate Brightspace Environments connected to Teams via the MS Teams Course Connector, using 2 separate Shufflelabs accounts? We have our Primary environment and a Continuing Ed environment, both with Course Connector capability. We already have our Primary connected to Teams,…

Are you able to change the settings of an H5P interactive into being a gradeable item after it was inserted into the page? Or would you have to create the interactive again and ensure that "Add grade item" is selected?

When I export grades from Brightspace, the column headers include metadata in angle brackets. For example: My Item Points Grade <Numeric MaxPoints:1 Weight:10 Category:My Category CategoryWeight:5> Is there a way to use this same format during import? If I am creating a new item, can I specify which category it belongs in…

How do I set the settings so that students can see the feedback for each option within a question in a quiz?

hello how can we see when and how often an instructor accessed their course site, especially in a now closed site. I tried setting the new Course End Date to a future date and setting course to active, but it did not show any course access even for students, does it take a while to come back? Does the View Progress tool…

I have a student who turned in her Final Project for my class days after the Final Grades were turned in. She told me she would be kicked out of South University if she failed my class so I allowed her to send me her Final Project. Where can I find a Change of Grade form to change her grade from a NCF to a passing grade?

I imported assignments from another class, but the list of them did not appear under Grades. So I created the list under grades. Now, when I try to link the assignment to the Grade Book. Only "Quiz 1" appears. Do I have to manually recreate the entire list of assignments under Grades again?

I need to create a 10-item quiz from a pool of 100 questions in the library. These 100 questions are organized into 5 sub-pools of 20 questions each. Is it possible to for the quiz to call only one of these sub-pools at a time, meaning all 10 questions should be from the same and only pool.

We are using the new content experience in Brightspace. I have imported a SCORM file (v. 1.2 created using Articulate Rise) containing some YouTube videos. When I set the SCORM file to display in the embedded player, the YouTube videos will not play. They display the error 'Video unavailable. This videos is restricted from…

Are there any settings or features in Brightspace that can help prevent or limit copy-and-paste actions during quizzes (such as disabling right-click etc)? Thanks!
