These avenues offer courses and articles about accessibility to enhance accessibility knowledge and a group of accessibility enthusiasts to stay connected with.

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.

Hi. We are using Classic Content. When we copy an entire course, we noticed that the Single profile widget does not copy into the course. Also, when we go to Import/Export Copy Components, we do not see an option to copy this individual component either. Our instructors have had to re-set it up for each course. (Note: we…

Hello, When I set up intelligent agent (IA) on my org area and set it under 'Action' to send an email. It sends the email multiple times based on the number of occurrences discovered by the condition created. For example, condition set, is to find out those who have not completed their application form and send them an…

how can I change my email

I can't seem to search for them in a class. I have Super Admin access. I can find the users when I use the "users" option for the entire system, but not when I am in the class itself. My only choices in classlist are instructor or learner. I see how I can see an enrollment log, but no way to change the user role in a class…

How do you download quiz questions from a quiz that has already been created. Just need a copy of the complete question with answers.

Hello! I've been teaching in Brightspace for a year now, and I would love to know how to view analytics on my Announcements. I've searched the discussions and the D2L documentation, but I have not found an answer. Thank you!

I can set release conditions for grade item categories and discussion forums - is it possible to do the same for assignment categories and discussion categories? I have a course that is designed for multiple types of users and I want them to see only the assignments, quizzes, discussions, and grades that are relevant to…

Is there a reason "private feedback" option is only available when Instructors visit grading option via the Gradebook and not via the assessment's grading option or even via quick eval?

Can learners see instant messages on the Pulse app? If so, were do they appear?

Hi- When my testbanks of a few thousand questions imported, they arrived in random order. There seems to be no functions that allow sorting. I would sort by name, chapter, or something, but no options seem to exist. I do not mean ordering questions in a quiz, but rather sorting the source questions in the library. This…

Hi there, I'm trying to merge multiple quizzes on Brightspace. I imported 5 quizzes from the other course and I want to merge them in 1 quiz. When I add from source, some quizzes three quizzes are showing blank but other two are showing questions. Why is it showing blank? How can I bring question from the three other…

Hi, Is there a way to get around the need to manually switch Modules (e.g. Weekly Content) from Hidden to Visible? In other words, is there a setting allowing instructors to schedule the exact date and time when a Module becomes Visible to students? Thanks for your help! Ron

I have an instructor who is no longer receiving notifications, and this stopped during the last Brightspace update. She only has the following 2 set: Discussions: New post in a forum And under Customize Notifications: Include my grade value But she is no longer receiving any. Has anyone else had this issue?

It seems to me that the list of notifications that are available for users in Brightspace are all student-applicable (such as when grades are released, etc.), but not instructor-applicable (such as when a student submits an assignment, etc.) Is there a way to enable instructor-applicable notifications? Thanks!

Can a student download their Portfolio (not ePortfolio) to save for after graduation?

I am having an intermittent issue with the Pulse app. Content I am creating in Brightspace elements (tabs, accordions) is sometimes visible and other times not. It is inconsistent from html page to page. I reinstalled the Pulse app and updated my phone (iPhone 12). My colleague with an Android reports the same problem.…
