I created a quiz. The instructor calls it an assignment. I want them to be one. Can this be done?

Wondering if someone can help with this very specific issue: I created a Category in my Gradebook for "Assignments" because I only want to count their best 10 submissions towards their final grade. One of my Assignments has two parts - Group and Individual. Each part is associated with a different External Learning Tool…

Hello, I have three quizzes, and the current grade formula calculates the final grade as the average of Q1, Q2, and Q3. However, if a student has only attempted one quiz, the formula calculates the final grade by assuming the scores of Q2 and Q3 to 0, which is not desired. How can I update the formula so that the final…

When I try to replace the video, mine is always too large and covers up the rest of the template

Hi Community, I was wondering if there is an easy way to create a link on an HTML page that jumps to another part of the same page without writing HTML code? I don't really understand HTML…I would like for learners to be able to jump to different parts of a page without having to scroll through the page to get information…

I'd like to enroll some people with administrator access into a Brightspace course. Does anyone know how to do this? Add participants and Manage User Enrollment don't seem to work.

I am currently designing a new course & yesterday when I tested it on the Pulse App none of the Creator+ Tabs data showed? I used the Accordion and that had no issues. Is there something I am missing to ensure it works on Pulse?

We are brand new! We will be spending the next year moving from Bb to Brightspace, and we'd LOVE to chat with you about your transition!

Have you looked at adding a chatbot function to make it easy for students to ask a question from the page they are on?

Hi, I would like to know if Brightspace supports VR content in courses? If yes, please provide more details. Thank you.

Hello, We are building an integration between Workday Student and Brightspace. We plan on using the D2L Standard CSV method in IPSIS, but are running into a problem. We can build a delta report that will tell us which course offerings have changes, and will return all of the current instructors. But so far, it seems like…

Hello, We are wondering when and where training and documentation resources for instructors and students will be posted for the advanced assignment options. It is set to be released in Aug 2024 (next month). The only information we see on the community is this one, which is more informational/release rather than…

Are there shells or templates that instructors of College Composition can use? Thank you. Sincerely, Eric Englert Illinois Valley Community College

Hello D2L Community, I'm seeking advice on behalf of our instructors who want to download/export Rubric Data. While they can view this information through the Rubric Statistics page within the LMS, it doesn't seem to be something they can directly download. As a system administrator, I have access to Data Sets and could…

How do you go about setting this up? Atomic Jolt team will be installing their Assessments tool into a sandbox I created. Then I will email faculty with a training date and invite them to try the tool. I will use "discover" setting for the sandbox. Anyone who has done something similar with insight to help, please do,…

Hi D2L community, Would like your advice… I have a 77.5mb PDF file that loads within tolerable duration when viewed in Content, but when I include the pdf file as a reference in a quiz (inserted as a quicklink under Quiz Information), it takes way longer to load, to the point where the screen freezes. Has anyone faced this…

In Analytics Builder I am struggling to understand how I might recreate a filtering technique I've used in the past. In order to get a dataset of current credit instructors and their courses, I'd use the Rank & Window function to get a number on the most recent action found in the Enrollment Details dataset (instructors…

I have a particular instance where a faculty member wants to allow one of her student workers to be able to grade a certain set of assignments. She doesn't want them to access the entire gradebook but only be able to grade these assignments. Is that possible? I understand that I may need to create a Student Grader role but…

Students have taken the test. I realized a multiple-choice question can have 2 answers but I only marked one as correct. How can I change the answer key to include both answers?

I am exploring using Camtasia as a video quiz option and i am trying to determine how I would be able to grade a short answer question attached to the quiz. I have successfully been able to do a quiz with watch percentage and with multiple choice, t/f, and fill in the blank. I am not seeing how to grade a short answer…
