Hi, the Internet says to go to More Actions and then reorder, but I don't have a Reorder selection available in Attendance. The weeks are out of order. How do I reorder them? Thank you, Donna Canan

Hi everyone - I'm working with a faculty member who wants to put the Creator+ practice questions inside a carousel so students can flip through them. I'm not seeing a way to do this in the carousel element setup itself - the text options don't seem to include an option to put in Creator+ practice questions, or to include…

I have an Arithmetic Question with Answer Precision set to 0 with enforce precision set to False, and with Tolerance for units set to 0.75. The correct answer is -44.423. My expectation is that any answer + or - 0.75 from that is within the tolerance. Which gives us the range from -43.673 to -45.173. Furthermore, since the…

I have a quiz where points per question are correct, but the gradebook total does not reflect the true quiz total. Can I correct this after students have started taking this quiz?

I modified a quiz question by adding an answer key after the quiz was taken by students. UBLearns replaced the original answered question with the new question that has no student responses. How can I restore the original question with responses?

My institution is working to create a consistent Brightspace experience for learners. The current reality for my institution is that course set-up is based on each instructor's preferences, effort, and knowledge of best practice in e-learning. To try and get all Brightspace courses on the same page, faculty were given a…

If I run a file to disable a user's account through IPSIS (DELETE action for that record), what would the difference be between running a file with a Create vs an UPDATE action to enable the account again?

Is there a way to export grades and the date of which the quiz was completed? For example, going to Quiz → dropdown options → Grades gives me exactly the visual I'm looking for. but, when I click on the export button on this page, the excel file gives me a whole different format.

Ok, so I figured out smart import for h5p has a default folder where all the smart import goes into. So I moved whatever that's been imported to other folders. This is where the issue is - at normal user interface level, I don't see so many smart import folders but in the files management interface, therethere are so many…

I want to suggest new D2L features, which I understand is done in the Product Idea Exchange. When I click on that option from the resources menu, I'm presented with the following error message: "Unavailable Quicklink. The External Learning Tool is not available."

Hello, Has anyone else noticed that the arrow that used to appear in the top righthand side of the gradebook (to scroll to the right when the number of grade items exceed the space available on the screen) is now missing? It is still possible to use the scroll bar on the bottom of the page to view items not visible…

An instructor created a survey with a written response question configured to allow students to upload a file. She wanted them to anonymously submit this file as peer reviews. But now that students have submitted, we can't find a way to see their uploaded/attached files as responses. They don't appear in Statistics or any…

Hi, When a new idea is logged on the new implementation of PIE, it is hidden to start off with. How long can we expect it to take to moderate an idea and make it visible? If an idea is not accepted and won't ever be made visible, how would we know? Best wishes, Hermien

Hello! I am an Instructional Assistant at my school helping instructors use Brightspace. An instructor usually gives students 2 or 3 attempts. He would like to give them a solution feedback for each question but would like for it to appear after they take their last attempt. How does he do that?

If it does, are there ways to prevent it from working without third party tools. The page for this extension boasts: "Get INSTANT answers to homework, quizzes, and tests. Private. ALL websites work including Canvas, BlackBoard, McGrawHill, D2L You see, it uses datasets and AI to get the right answer and display it on your…

hello, seems like we have to select an option in the Restrict To drop down now, such as Completed Attempts, I have however; a faculty who says they used to be able to get the quiz Statistics under the All Attempts and they want that. Will a selection under the drop down menu for Restrict To, always be required going…
