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?

Change default when displaying questions from a quiz attempt
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…

Is there a way to allow a "feedback field" or discussion pad in quizzes for users?
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.

Insert Stuff HTML code

Survey Tool
Hello - I have been asked to create a survey for all the students in all my courses across the institution. I know I could create a survey in each class manually, but is there an easier way to do it? It is for every course running in this "semester" so there is a way to get a list of the courses.

feedback
What could be the reason that feedback that a teacher has given to a student at a submission point, differs in text and letters from what it should actually be? Normally, that should be the same. The only thing I can think of is that it is due to the student's laptop, but then the student should encounter it more often. I…

Has anyone hosted live events with their students (i.e trivia quizzes for socialisation purposes)?
I'm exploring the idea of hosting live events on our Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) to enhance social interaction and engagement rather than focusing solely on assessing course content knowledge.
