I've had a strange experience wherein I uploaded a .dwg file (as a submitted assignment), then a .dxf file in the same assignment. I then deleted (moved to the trash bin) the .dwg file on the computer. I left both files on Brightspace. When I next looked at Brightspace, both were listed as .dxf files. Can anyone tell me…

For accreditation purposes, for some subjects we need to keep a record of marked up assignment submissions. As the cohorts are usually in excess of 400 students, we are seeking a bulk download option for the annotated submissions. Could anyone suggest a method?

Can I re-open a quiz for a student while keeping all their previously entered questions intact? From what I understand a quiz reset erases all their already completed work.

I want to change the way my gradebook is set up. Currently everything is organized by categories, like Assigned Work (which contains the majority of the items), Weekly Tests, Extra Credit.
