We published some SCORM 1.2 files directly to LOR. The preview link shows an error message "Unable to acquire LMS API…" The SCORM file works fine in the course though.

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.

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.

How do I find where to take attendance?

Hello, We are attempting to try some things where we have totally separate discussion posts. We do not want two groups of students to be able to see each other's post in the class. However, we would like to have a link to the Discussion post in the Content area so that the student's could easily access it. Is there a way…

How do I enable learners to be able to view a file that I have attached, when evaluating an Assignment? A learner showed me his grade, but there was no icon or link to view the attached file (an HTML file in my case.)

I have created a template module with descriptions, formatting, tables, instructions, etc. I want to know how to duplicate the module so students get a consistent experience. The core modules will be the same with changes depending on the chapter. I do not want to recreate the core experience for 14 chapters. In every…

Hi there, My organization uses a widget-based homepage that has a two-panel layout. The left widget is the main focus of the screen and it shows the course content. Is there a way to expand the widget size so that it takes up more screen space vertically?

Is there a way to make my question library available across multiple courses? I frequently create questions, categories, etc. that I want to reuse in multiple courses during the same semester, and I'm hoping for functionality like I've had in past LMSes: having a question library that exists outside a particular course,…

I want to add one event to a school calendar that will display to all courses that are child org's under that school. Or can you only create an event in each of the course calendars?

What is the best way to attach an image to an assignment. I tried the attached image icon and I did not work for me.

Hi. Recently we have found that some assignment submissions are no longer able to be previewed/opened. There is an option to download the submitted file but not to view the file within the platform. The issue is with our most recent submissions as well as some older submissions that previously previewed/opened fine.…

(asked a question, found the answer on my own)

Hello, I am a student who participates in discussion boards where replies get into the hundreds. It is not required for me to click on each one and read it. Is there a way for me to clear out the notification tab underneath the class name that shows "99+ unread"? Thanks! Jaela
