Has anyone else had an issue with the completion summary for checklists displaying incorrect information.

I have a quiz with 6 sections.

My question is if there is a way to disable the "Send E-mail" function for Students in the Classlist within Brightspace, just from a few specific courses? Or is the best route to remove the Classlist tab from the Navigation Bar to not have the E-mail option available? Thanks!

Hi All- Currently in the middle of a SIS change over and testing the API between the SIS and Brightspace. Noticed this morning on a test push, that the course sent over only had an offering and had no section. In our current LMS setup, we sent over the template, course offering and then a course section. I was not involved…

Hi, I would like to be able to give individual feedback to students even when they are doing a Group Assignment. Is this possible? I heard about the option to provide feedback to multiple students for individual assignments, but this is still a Group Assignment. Thanks, Jordi

All of the sudden, instructors and students receive a "not authorized" message when attempting to view PowerPoint files within a course. The files are being distrubuted from the LOR, but there has never been an issue like this before. Does anyone have any idea what is going on? And how to fix this issue? Thank you in…

Hello, I am unable to see a H5P quiz I made reflected in the gradebook. I have tried to see it in both my instructor profile as well as when "impersonating" a student role. I also do not see a pace where I can assign a category. I was able to save and insert after I created it and read on the help site that "If you're…

I'm trying to implement the Quiz Printer Widget which I saw in a recent email about Brightspace features. I was able to create the custom widget at the organizational level and add it to a course. But no quizzes are selectable in the Widget. For some reason the widget does not see the quizzes. I attached an image and the…

I just want to make sure I am not missing something regarding the embedding of assessments, primarily quizzes. I can insert H5P assessments right on the HTML "file" content page but when I use a brightspace quiz, it seems that I can only put it in the same module the HTML file page sits in, I can't embed within the HTML…

Hello, My name is Brayden — I intern as a Support Service Desk over at Central New Mexico Community College (CNM). First, a little bit of back story: I have a colleague here at CNM who also works at another college… both colleges use Brightspace. Currently, the New Quiz Evaluation Experience is only in our DEV environment…

I am screenshotting images of worked problems into my quiz feedback. It always allows me to hit the save button, but it only remembers the feedback about half the time.

In our Brightspace course we use html videos exported as zip files from Captivate. We then upload the zip file to Manage Files and then we unzip the file and point to the index.html in a module for a course video. Within the video, there is an embedded exit button at the end of the video that generally just exits out of…

When I look at the gradebook, all I can see is their percentages achieved in the category. The percentage they have out of 100% for the category and the total they have out of the weight of the category. But I need to see the total of the points for each item in the category.

In my grade book for a quiz there is a ? icon for a submission by a student - no grade recorded - how can I reset the quiz so the student can take it again?
