customizing the Units in NCE
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.

Is there a way to change the default programming language for code samples?
Is there a way to change the default programming language for code samples on a course by course basis? Right now, the default is JavaScript.

New Content Experience: Video Embeds
My institution is currently experimenting with the New Content Experience. A concern is the lack of support for video embeds (bar YouTube) when creating a new weblink.

Survey Tool
Hello - I have been asked to create a survey for all the students in all my courses across the institution. I know I could create a survey in each class manually, but is there an easier way to do it? It is for every course running in this "semester" so there is a way to get a list of the courses.
