Microsoft Reflect Integration
Has one integrated MS Reflect into Brightspace? I am trying to but it is not working. But before I spend too much time trying to get it to work I'm wondering what the integration produces.

What does 'Manage Files' in the Tool Access report refer to?
The Tool Access report shows a table and a pie chart representing the percentage of overall views for each tool within a selected timeframe. One of the tools is 'Manage Files'. It is unlikely to be referring to the file management tool which is not accessible to students. (In the image, only the 'Student' role was…

Throw out a quiz question
Hi All, Got a question the other day about quizzes from an instructor. He realized after students submitted and had graded a quiz he created that there was a question that could have been misinterpreted by students, leading some to get the incorrect answer. I showed him how to edit the question so that all students in the…

In FIB questions, how to keep blanks in the same line of the question?
Hello, I have troubles formating Fill in the Blank questions. Sometimes the blank box goes in the same line as the sentence it is part of, and sometimes it goes to the next line. Sometimes the part of the sentence that follows the blank is in the same line as the blank, and sometimes in the next line. How can I format the…

Can a release condition restrict a student from taking 2nd quiz attempt until content is reviewed?
Is it possible in D2L to make a piece of content mandatory based on a grade on an assessment? In other words, if a student fails an assessment, can we force them to review a specific module before they can attempt the assessment a second time? If yes, how would this be set up?

Is there a way to input an on-paper exam (MC questions) and student responses for test analysis?
I recently conducted an in-person exam with my students using scantron. However, I would like to find a way to input the exam MC questions and possible answers, as well as each student's answers and grade on the exam for test data analysis in D2L. Is there a way this can be done? I imagine it would take a bit of manual…

Discussions: Due Dates Separated by Post and Replies
Other than creating a new/different discussion, can we assign separate due dates for discussion posts and replies? The one due date for the entire assignment then requires a reminder/separate communication to students to complete the post by a certain date so that peers can reply.

Has anyone used Brightspace datasets to identify group enrolments?
I'm looking for a way to manage bulk group enrolments for specific types of groups that are managed centrally. The only option I can see currently is to manually unenroll students from a group (one . . . by . .. one), which seems unnecessarily tedious and I don't want to do that. There doesn't seem to be a Brightspace…
