I am using SCORM questions embedded in my lectures for the first time. Grades are being recorded inconsistently - some students have no problems with any of the lectures, whereas others are receiving grades for some but not all lectures. I imagine this has to mean that students are doing/not doing something that is causing…

Hello, I have a professor who is having an issue in which a specific course's homepage somehow became his default homepage whenever he logs into Brightspace or clicks the My Home icon. Our administrator checked and ensured that the University course homepage is set as default. Can anyone tell me how to address this issue?…

Hello, I have some questions regarding the instructor experience in NCE. Is there a way to place created content within a unit directly at the top of the list of items? After an item is created in a unit containing multiple items, it appears at the bottom of that unit and needs to be dragged and dropped. Classic Content…

Has anyone implemented the Parent and Guardian app in Brightspace? We are looking into it for student services staff to observe student athletes. Best, Amanda

My classlist is in alpha order in Brigthspace, but when I print, it puts my name (as the instructor) at the top and lists students in order of being added to the course. How can I change this? Thanks, Mike

Hello can any one please explain more about how to use Course Copy Bulk. already read the document but have no clue what to do, already setup configuration but still dont know how to use, please help Thankyou

I have about 50 students in each section and it would take an inordinate amount of time to manually take attendance each class session if there is no way to automate this process. I have used other applications that automate attendance, but they charge students an additional fee, which I am trying to avoid if at all…

Our classes run for 15 weeks and I don't see how I could cram 15 weeks into register. Is there a calendar version. Helpful to link students to missed lectures, handouts, assignments.

I'm aware the data such as assignment submissions already submitted in a course does not reflect in the new merged course (once this happens). Is there any way for administrators or instructors to access this student data? Is it stored somewhere accessible? A use case for this would be papertrail or a backup of student…

Is there a way that when you switch from Instructor to Student view and back, that it doesn't go to the main page and stays on the page that you are trying to view?

When certificates are generated, the replace string {AwardDate} populates with the name of the day (e.g. Friday, August 29, 2024). Is it possible to configure {AwardDate} to remove the name of the day in the date?

I have a Unit that needs a new section (I'm not sure what the Brightspace name for it is).

I have a quiz that has been graded and it won't publish to the gradebook. I have verified the quiz is linked to the grade book, all attempts are graded, the settings for the quiz are correct (auto-publish and sync to gradebook), and I have manually published and exported grades to gradebook and they still won't appear.…

How do I change the deadline for the Discussion Forum in my course? Thank you,

Is it possible to require students to post comments on other student's discussion posts, and to have these count towards their grade? How do I do that?

Hello, how do I add my classes here?

If I set in class list an accomodation time multiplier, is the extra time automatically added to the time available for the quiz for that student?

Hello, According to this blog [https://community.d2l.com/brightspace/kb/articles/26239-transforming-creator-practices-to-data-enabled-practice-activities], D2L's acquisition of H5P will be used to enhance Creator+. I am wondering if someone from D2L can respond to whether or not this will eventually include interactive…
