Alternatively, I could set it up such that a PDF is available for download only after the user completed a quiz or something.

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.

Hi there, Our college uses Turn it In as an AI detection tool and am wondering if there is a way to enable Turn it In on student's discussion posts? Is this something that needs to be done in the back end of our LMS? Any ideas would be appreciated! Thank you, Melanie

I'm new to Brightspace. How can you tell if content is a page, a PPT, a Word file, or a PDF? It seems difficult to tell.

New to me this semester, my name is now listed as a user when grading quizzes. Furthermore, when I advance throughout the quiz attempts and reach my name, I can no longer advance to the next student. Does anyone know what setting changed for me and how I can take my name off the list of users when grading quizzes and…

Raising this to see if there are new alternative methods I may not be aware of to export Class Progress % or show it in Grades. Context: We would like to track and export the class progress % of students in the course, and would be good if we can see it in the Grade book for ease. Currently, the class progress in the GUI…

Is there a way through the GUI? Or is the only way through the datasets?

When I setup my own grade scheme e.g. Pass/Fail, can I have it show the scores in percentage as well? At the moment, it just gives me the absolute scores. Thank you.

Hello, how can I delete an assignment. I am allowing the student to resubmit and not be graded on what she originally submitted. There used to be a way last year under Eval, now I can't find it. Thank you.

I've added content for Welcome windows to a couple of courses. I followed the instructions, adding a module called "Welcome" to the Content (hidden from students), then added a new page to that with the info to be shown in the window. Then when I try it as an Admin, it looks correct. But when I either impersonate a Learner…

I have added Learning Outcomes to a course and have connected different outcomes to different assignments. Each of the assignments has a rubric however I can't attach the rubric (greyed out). I disabled the Competencies tool as directed in order to use the Learning Outcomes tool, however now I am reading that in order to…

I'm using Articulate Rise and publishing the SCORMS as SCORM 2004, 4th Edition using 'Track using course completion as 100%" and reporting as "complete/incomplete". When adding the SCORM to BrightSpace, I select "New SCORM/xAPI Object", opt for it to open in new window, select 'no' for wanting a grade item (we use a…

Hello, Our syllabus acknowledgement quiz will be pass/fail and should not be calculated into the final grade. I do not have the "Exclude for Final Grade Calculation" option that is on the right side of the screen. Is there a way to enable this?

Some of our users are experiencing difficulties when accessing their course on a mobile phone or iPad. We are using the New Content Experience in Brightspace. A few issues they’ve reported include: Not seeing the Next and Previous arrows, or only seeing them partially Not seeing the ReadSpeaker (screen reader) bar at the…

When offering several sections of a course with TAs and common assessments with a short answer/essay question, is there an easy way to produce a report that shows: the grader, the assigned grade on that item (not the average as is show in the statistics under Manage Quizzes) across all the sections? If not, is there an…

I'm looking to export a quiz into a Brightspace package (not copy, but export). If I have images in the quiz, do I need to select ALL COURSE FILES in the export setting?

I'm setting up a quiz where a learner has to get 100% score in a single attempt in order to pass. If the learner fails at the attempt, the learner can re-attempt the quiz but the incorrect question has to be different. Is this currently available with Brightspace? To my understanding, reattempt only incorrect questions…
