Restricting Learners' capabilities on the email system
Because of security concerns I have regarding learners' capabilities in the internal email system, we were wondering if there's a way to do the following: Restrict a role's ability to send emails to non-Brightspace users (e.g., an external email address when said email address isn't attached to a user in Brightspace).…

Suggestions for Product Idea Exchange (bad linked rn)
Is there a way to hide courses from the my home, or segmented course links? For instance, my institution has shells for our yearly trainings, but it is hard to keep track of which still need to be completed and which have been completed. I'd like to hide the ones I'm done with! Anyone have any ideas?

Naming of Sections from SIS
We are brand new to D2L. We have painfully discovered that our section naming from our SIS is not helpful to faculty when sending emails from the Message Alerts tool. Same experience when trying to publish Kaltura to a course. I would like to know what others are doing with their sections. Thanks, Tonya

Is there a way to view the quiz question scores of a class at a glance?
Let's say I have a class of 20 who attempted a quiz with 5 questions. Is there any way in Brightspace to see a table or something that shows me, at a glance, the scores each student obtained for each question? Basically something like Grades/Gradebook but for a quiz and its questions. Thank you.

Is an achievement scale required before instructors can create and align course outcomes?
We are beginning to test the Learning Outcomes (Standards) tool and have not yet created an organization-level achievement scale. Does an achievement scale need to be in place before instructors can create, import, and align outcomes in their courses, or is it only required once they begin assessing student achievement? I…

Copying a course with an Edpuzzle Assignment
Hi Community, When a course is copied with an EdPuzzle assignment, it seems like each assignment has to be deleted and recreated, as the old link is pointing to a different class. Besides deleting all the old asssignments and recreating everything, is there a better method that I should be using? thanks! Chris

Is it possible to remove Teams links from within Brightspace?
My organisation is using the Teams connector to automatically create a team every time a section/ course is created on the system. We recently had an issue where courses and sections were duplicated resulting in the unfortunate duplications pushing to Teams. The duplicated courses have been removed both on Brightspace and…

Automatically enable "Can Exceed" for quizzes with bonus questions (or move the setting into the qui
When I created my first Brightspace quiz with bonus questions, some students earned scores above the maximum (e.g., 16/10), but the linked grade item capped every grade at 10 because Can Exceed had not been enabled on the grade item. As a new user, it never occurred to me that marking a quiz question as Bonus was not…

Discussion Notifications
Occasionally, students will need to edit their discussion threads upon request to include resources, images, etc. However, I do not receive notifications when a post/thread has been edited.
