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.

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?

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…

Assigning AWARDS/CERTS at the ORG unit to users with the same name
New to Brightspace and love what it has to offer at the course/learner level, but boy the admin functionality is really lacking. We want to assign awards and certs at the org level, but we've noticed when searching for users with a common name, you can't differentiate between them. See screen shot. Am I missing a config…

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…

Deactivate & request a new site for a course
Hi everyone, While copying content from a previous semester, our gradebook links did not transfer correctly, causing hundreds of grade items to get mixed up. We now have a newly designed course structure that we’d like to copy over. Our plan is to deactivate the current course (so we can still reference previous students'…

Can't view attachments to surveys
Hello, A professor created an annonymous survey with questions listed in a Word Doc rather than creating the questions within Brightspace's Survey tool. Students submitted their responses via attachments after they downloaded and filled out the Word Doc. The problem is that the instructor cannot access the students'…

Classlist in Alphabetical Order
When I go to classlist, select the arrow and choose for students' names to be listed in alphabetical order from either last or first, only a few names are listed in order and the rest are not. Is this an issue that's been reported before? Is there a way for me to resolve this on my end?

Virtual Classroom Attendance
Hello, I had previously sent a ticket inquiring if we could add the student ID# numbers with the student names in the virtual classroom attendance tracker. The response was no. We have classes with mandatory attendance requirements and multiple students with the same name, so we cannot differentiate who attended. I had…

Adding a note and notification to an updated file
Hello, Is it possible to add a note to an updated file so that students can see a brief description of what was updated? I'm guessing this can be done with the new Description box feature in NCE, but can it be done in a way so that students receive a notification when a new version of a file is updated? Thanks, Yildiz

Restrictions - Sections - Display configurations
Hello D2L community, We created a course but now we want to know how to more effectively restrict our audience to access certain content. We need to grade each user individually, but we have different modules inside the course (3) with scorm objects from which we take grades for quizzes. However, we also have a guide…

Regarding Shuffling Questions and Sections
From the documentation I read, when creating quizzes with Sections, the main Shuffle Questions setting under the "Timing & Display" should not affect questions within a Section however when I previewed, the questions within/under the section were also shuffled as well as the section title. Perhaps I'm not associating the…

MIDI files
We have a robust Music Industry Careers, Management, etc. department at my institution and they have asked about how to upload MIDI files into Brightspace. I don't see it as a supported file type anywhere and was curious about what others may be doing to support these types of courses.

Assignment submission receipt email
Hi everyone, I’ve noticed that Brightspace sends an automatic email to learners every time they submit an assignment, even though I didn’t add an email address in the Notification Email field when setting up the assignments. I would like to stop this automatic submission receipt email but still want learners to receive…

Survey - Reports Generation and Editing
Hello D2L community, We have recently opened a new module in our D2L course shell, and as a part of this learning journey, we have set up surveys. I would like to know if there is any way we can generate reports to see the students' numbers (part of our university ID) without leveraging that question in the survey itself.…
