Grading is very slow in Brightspace
Why is grading so cumbersome and slow in D2L? Why do I have to click on the submitted document, then wait for it to appear, provide my feedback, and then click "publish", wait for it to publish, then click the arrow button to go to the next student? That's 3 clicks and waiting 3 times that greatly slows down my ability to…

Completion Status column in grades?

However, when it bundles up all the submissions into one .zip file, it's all in order by student ID number, so it's all over the place. Any way to change the order in the .zip files? Had become accustomed to the order in the file matching the order…

I had set an assignment to be weighted as 4%, marked out of 6 points. However, when I go to do the actual evaluation I'm only presented with the 'overall grade' showing a mark out of 4. How do I get the 'points' to show up instead of (or at least in addition to) the weighting mark?

It takes like three clicks to get rid of a notification for a message I've already read. Am I doing something wrong? Or is the Discussion board work-flow designed for…
