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.

Unfortunately, there does not seem to be a print option directly from D2L. The two workarounds that we have been provided: 1 - D2L says to print-screen and paste into a Word document. This does not…

I have ongoing cohorts taking the same Brightspace basics training course. I grouped them into groups/cohorts. Can I view only one group in the Gradebook? If so, how to set it up?

I have an instructor who ended up making a test an in-person test rather than an online test. The online test still exists in the course but has no attempts; the grade item will be used by the instructor manually adding in the grades in the gradebook item. The tricky part is the instructor wants to provide the feedback to…

Is it possible to push a document out to all courses? We created a document with course guidelines and we wanted it to be present in all our courses. I know we can add this to each course manually but I was hoping there would be a better way. Any help appreciated!

What can I use on Brightspace for a presentation or infographic tool that students can design answers to in respect of a case study?

When creating groups for my class of 175 students, I set an expiry date, and checked the box "Allocate unenrolled users after Self Enrollment Expiry Date" (see attached image). Most students self-enrolled, but my understanding was that the remaining unenrolled students would be automatically placed into groups that were…
