Creating or importing new users from a course
Good day, I'm wondering if its possible to customize or even change some of the settings when creating a new user via the Classlist. For example, if you attempt to use the Create and Enroll user you don't have the option to set a username and the Org Defined ID is a required field. But if I use Import Users from file…

Use cases for Quiz Evaluation settings
I'm not clear on what happens when the various options are checked or not: If I don't click Auto-publish results, what does that do with the results? Where would I find them? What if I do click "Auto-publish", but NOT "Synchonize..." What would happen then? Can you describe a use case when the "Auto-publish" option should…

This is strange and confusing for instructors. We've looked through recent updates to see if there is something that might have caused this new and…

Dropbox document-- issue on my end or students?
I require students to use Microsoft Word to write their papers. Everyone at my university has access to Word and hopefully requiring .docx resolves compatibility issues. This past session I had some papers that open up in the dropbox as a document of random characters. When I downloaded the document, it was the same-- all…

Browser Lockdown and Team Viewer (remote access)
Hello, I am wondering if Browser Lockdown can detect whether a laptop has been turned on for remote viewing from a third party? Like Team Viewer but more problematic as this remote viewing could be done within the Windows settings before the exam opens. Thanks in advance for an insights!

PowerPoint slides overlaying on top of each other when uploaded
Has anyone else had PowerPoint decks show every slide at once when uploaded as a file into Brightspace? If we turn it into a PDF it does not do this but we are hosting the files for instructors to download and then use when teaching the course. The deck is fine before and after it is uploaded and downloaded.
