How do I upload my homework to send my instructor?

I teach language courses online, and as part of students’ discussions, I have students use D2L's audio recorder to record their voices in the language they are learning. They typically complete 3-4 recordings before each checkpoint (deadline), and once the deadline passes, I review these recordings through "Class Progress"…

Hi, we have a master module which is copied 14 times to form modules for specialist tutors. Intelligent agents (IA) are set to run in the master module before the copy process, so it would be useful for the email sent to CC in the role of tutor. This would reduce confusion because the tutor would be reminded of the…

Good morning, I was wondering if anyone else has had trouble entering student passwords for quizzes and tests through a remote access suite such as Net Support. My proctors are having to enter the test room with each student and input the passwords after launching lockdown browser. Does this reflect a change in the basic…

How can I review my login activity including location details as an instructor?

Just posted a comment to the PIE. Now, suddenly I can no longer comment and no comments are visible on any posts. Tag: Bug Report

If we export a quiz' student attempts & grades into an Excel file, for a WR question, all the lines will be consolidated into one line, and it is difficult to read. Can D2L export all students' attempts for a specific quiz question into a Word or PDF file so that the formatting of the answers is preserved? If not directly,…

Hello, Is there a replacement or something similar to the slim announcement widget? We are looking for an announcement widget that doesn't take up the whole course home page when an instructor posts a long announcement, but rather prompts the student to "read more" so the learner see the rest of the widget on the homepage…

When trying to set the LTI 1.3 tool, I get the error "Keyset URL cannot be reached." However, when I open that Keyset URL in a new tab, it seems to work. What could be the issue?

We don't want the students to see the questions and answers to most of the questions but we have a couple of short answer questions that we added feedback. We want the feedback to be seen for those 2 questions for all students is that possible?

Hello, I used to be able to open and read d2L files as page format, then suddenly I can't read the file as page format and have to either view as text or download the file because it keeps telling me "PDF loading error: failed to fetch" even though I was trying to open PowerPoint slides or docx. files and also pdf. files.…

Is there a way to get startDateTime and endDateTime when querying for a line item? We must be consistent with the dates between our tool and the platform hosting our deep link. During our query to the line item endpoint, we can get the line item but it is limited to ID, scoreMaximum, label, resourceId, and resourceLinkId.…

If I enter a discussion due date in Content module, will the due date appear in the Work to Do widget?

This only started recently and I don't know how to fix it. I have a Chromebook that is only about 2 years old and I have been able to take D2L quizzes fine until about a few weeks ago when it no longer worked. How can I fix this issue?

We like to give our students 10 minutes after they have submitted their quiz to review the incorrect answers only, however when the 10min timer stops- the questions remain available. What do I need to alter in the settings to make sure that the timer is enforced and that the quiz closes out?

I give a lot of fill-in-the-blank quizzes in my class, and the grading can get tedious since I have to check each attempt for correct answers that were marked incorrect due to spelling or wording differences. Is there a way for me to see only the questions/answers that were not awarded points instead of all questions in…

Dear Brightspace Support, I am currently trying to integrate Office 365 Single Sign-On (SSO) with D2L Brightspace but cannot find the authentication tools or relevant settings to complete the integration from the Brightspace side. I have already configured the application on the Office 365 portal (Azure AD) and have the…

how would I start an announcement by using "Hi" followed by each individual student instead of "everyone"?

Hello, I recently had a student switching from one section to another (both sections are my classes). Now I only see his grades for items AFTER the switch in the current section and can't see his profile and grades for items BEFORE the switch in the old section. Anyone knows the grades in the old section would be stored…
