The Accessibility category serves as a single point of access to three avenues in Brightspace Community leading to the Accessibility Academy, Accessibility Library and Accessibility Discussions. These avenues offer courses and articles about accessibility to enhance accessibility knowledge and a group of accessibility enthusiasts to stay connected with.

If someone registers for a webinar, but ends up not being able to make it, is a recording made available?

Is there a way to set the discussions so that all comments are displayed in their entirety as opposed to having to click the more button to display the entire message? Having to manually click the more button to read each message breaks the flow of reading the comments and responses. Thanks Rene

Hi all, If there's documentation on this please point me in the right direction, I couldn't find much this morning. Is there a way to have Lumi Chat expanded by default when users first login to Brightspace? We are having trouble getting students and faculty to use the tool (it would be SO useful if they would use it!) and…

Good morning, I am being asked to enter a code for the knowledge check on an outside web browser. who do i ask for this code, as i am unsure if this portion is a mandatory feature of my course. Thank you

Hi there, We’re currently using Brightspace with the Creator+ package, and we have access to Data Hub. While it provides raw data, we’re looking for more user-friendly and visual tools to help us evaluate learner engagement and course effectiveness. Is it possible to enhance Data Hub or purchase add-ons that offer better…

I would love to use the Instructor Usage ADS in a live report for in the Insights Analytics Builder. Is that possible? If not, how do I recreate that data? What BDS do I pull from and how do I connect them? What filters do I use, if any, on each table?

Hi, We have lots of group submissions for assignments. We set up the group set and then set up the assignment so the group of students submits together, and TurnItIn is almost always turned on for these submissions too. The strange thing is, when I look at the Submission Information in TurnItIn Feedback Studio, the Student…

Just wanted to know if there's a way to find out what/which files have been deleted in 'Manage Files'. Thank you.

Hello, I used Discussion for the first time this weekend. The assignment was to practice APA style 7 writing so it needed to be written in a word processor application and then copy/pasted into the Discussion field. When I pasted the assignment to D2L, a prompt successfully asked me to choose to either keep or discard the…

Hello, I have a professor who is embedding graphics in Content's HTML pages using img src="data:image/png;base64 etc. so that each page of content can be managed as a single file. This is not working when he tries to do so in the description of an embedded assignment in NCE. After saving HTML with an embedded image, the…

Using https://docs.valence.desire2learn.com/res/grade.html#get--d2l-api-le-(version)-(orgUnitId)-grades-(gradeObjectId)-values-, specifically GET /d2l/api/le/(version)/(orgUnitId)/grades/(gradeObjectId)/values/ I am able to access the score each student sees in their own grading system from the API (so I can ensure that I…

Hello, I was wondering if anyone has tested the update to Pulse - "View recurring events"? I tested but no events are appearing in Pulse. I am an admin but enrolled in this particular course as a student. Any idea why I am not seeing any Events? Thanks, Michelle

Hi everyone. I hope anybody knows how to submit the answer for the assignment for HIN268 class. Thank you

When my students take a quiz, I don't want them to see the answers until everyone has taken the quiz, so I initially set the view in "Evaluation and Feedback" to 'no questions'. Later, when I change that to show all questions, it doesn't show the points the student got for each question! This is just crazy. I dug about 8…

Hi, When might we expect to see this https://community.d2l.com/brightspace/kb/articles/1382-improve-your-course-with-brightspace-accessibility-checker documentation page updated to show the new accessibility checker icon from the February 2025 release? Thanks.

This is in student view. We don't want students to know how many correct answers they have to select.

No class visible. Professor says I am set up but nothing shows on my end

when I create my courses from IPSIS for the new session, I get this message “Parent org unit mapping not found”. However, the information seems to be correct and everything works manually.

The discussion pad is meant for learners to fill in when they are attempting the quiz. For example, the quiz is set up as an MCQ quiz, but quiz takers are able to input their working/calculation methods as well. This will provide deeper insights for lecturers on how their learners answered the quiz.

Within each Brightspace module, we have units/folder set up as Week 1, Week 2 etc. And within each unit/folder, there are lesson content, a couple quizzes and discussions. Naturally, the unit is structured for students to navigate through the content and complete the quiz (e.g. Pre-Class Quiz → Content A → Quiz → Content B…
