We have a huge variety of semester codes that render the My Courses widget practically unusable. We want to reduce the number of tabs in that widget by getting all modules related to one academic year into one tab. I've seen other unis doing this, but not sure how you get around the multiple semester ID issue, where the…

I haven't changed any of the settings from last semester's course master. But somehow there is no updating of the student final marks after four assignments in the current semester. What do I need to change?

Hello, We received the custom colors update for the New Content Experience and while faculty are happy to customize the colors, many aren't too happy about the change of the look of the modules. The color of the Units and Lessons are just a sliver of the module buttons, and in an all white screen the colors barely stand…

We have templates available via Public Files for our instructors to use, but recently we have noticed that sometimes a line of code gets added randomly and it messes up our own CSS. <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://templates.lcs.brightspace.com/lib/assets/css/styles.min.css">This code keeps appearing underneath our own…

Hi everyone, If I have a quiz that was marked out of 10 and completed by students, but the mark is meant to be out of five, can I adjust this in grade centre or will it erase the students' marks? How do I adjust? Thank you 😀

How do you deal with updates to a resource in your online content when, for example, the URL is changed or the content is updated? We're encountering this question for our online courses which are redeveloped annually but updated (to address broken links etc) continuously. Given my librarian side (MLS, and ID) it would be…

I am looking to develop a report for uploading into Ellucian's CRM Advise. This will require me to use the "Course Section Code" which lives in the All Grades Advanced Data Set but there is no All Grades Data set within Report builder. Goal is to make the tables within Analytics builder without having to develop a script…

When grading a discussion in the assess discussion screen: I try to open the topic score link in a new tab, I get a blank page. Attached is the link I am clicking. I can't add a second screenshot for the window I am getting when clicking this link, but it says "about:blank#blocked". I have tried all the standard fixes for…

At my university, we set the Start Date for all courses to correspond with the date on which the academic semester begins — for example, our 16 week Fall semester begins on August 26 this year, so all courses for that semester have a default Start Date of August 26 at 12:00 AM (though individual instructors may modify the…

I have to go to insert quick link, then course files and I can see all of my files, pdf's, word documents, images, etc. However, when I click insert stuff > course files I am only able to see/select image files. I don't know what content experience I am getting.

We have an instructor who is auditing the grades for an exam that students take to see if the score is a predictor of persistence. He'd also like to know what (if any) grade students who have withdrawn from the course received. I know it can be done one at a time via Classlist > Enrollment statistics, but this is somewhat…

How many course offerings can one merge using SIS Course Merge? Could a merged course offering be merged again with another? We may need to merge up to three course offerings.

We've got a quiz running, where all users have 5 attempts to pass. If they don't pass in 5 attempts they can request extra attempts. We add these using Special Access in the Availability Dates & Conditions menu. It's been working fine since January, but this week although the extra attempts are showing in the Special…

Hello, While the NCE is easier to navigate and more visually appealing, some of my faculty miss the progress bar and updates that showed students how much content of each unit they completed. Are there any plans to add that functionality into NCE? Thanks, Yildiz

Hello, Is there a way to locate all Courses Org Units that are using each media object in the Media Library? I looked around in Data Hub and I could only find a report called "Media Objects" which provides the media object's Content ID but not the org units that are using them. Thanks Rim
