QType — Description — Need to a break between Sections when there are no Questions in a the Section
I need students to be able to read some text. Then move to a new Section (next page) with questions. I can only add my reading to a new Section, but even though I create a new Section (and have selected "Add page break after every section") — there is no page break between the two. I have found if I add a Section with a…

Has anyone been encountering problems with Release Conditions lately?
I was wondering how to control the visibility of assignment submission folders and quizzes according to sections. I have attached released conditions to a Teacher Facilitator role so that they can only see assignment and quiz submissions specific to their section, but for some reason, they can still see all assignment…

Quiz sharing from the repository
I want to confirm that I should be able to create a question bank and a quiz, locate it in the repository and share it out to multiple courses. Any updates to the questions for the quiz in the repository should automatically be reflected in each course's quiz. A workflow would be greatly appreciated.

Annual PD Training Course - Best way to set it up
One of our departments is looking to set up a mandatory professional learning course in the HUB with the following requirements: "I’m hoping that everyone can do all of the lessons at least once and then on an annual basis, since completing all of the lessons does take some time, I’d like to have the option to rotate the…

How to prevent courses from blackbaud in previous year to show up in brightspace, which syncs daily
For the 23-24 school, within Blackbaud, we did all the “usual steps” in terms of graduating/promoting the students up for the 24-25 school year. That was done in June 2024. Brightspace syncs nightly from Blackbaud, and we’ve just learned that the 23-24 school year is still active in Brightspace, populating all those…

docx File Preview
I don't understand why I cannot view in Preview mode from Assignments, student work saved as a docx file. Why does Brightspace change the formatting from a submitted docx file. Things like spacing, paragraphs, pagination, etc. is ALL different most of the time. I shouldn't have to download and use my hard disk resources to…

User login data
Is it possible to pull user login data for a whole year? I've gone into data hub and can see the data set for user login but it seems to do it by day. I want to pull an average of how often people are logging in every week but don't massively want to have to do it via loads of spreadsheets. It also seems to only go back to…

Web Filtering
I support a primary school which is looking to start using D2L Brightspace. I want to make sure their Smoothwall filtering system isn't blocking anything that they need, before they start using it. Is there anywhere I can obtain a list of URLs that need to be allowed through the web filtering system?

Can I use one grade item for two assignments?
I have two versions of the same assignment. Students can only access one version and it produces a mark depending on which group they belong to. So I end up with two columns of marks. Each student has a mark for the assignment they did and a zero for the assignment they don't have access to. What I want is one column of…

I have been removed as a teacher for several courses when they were transferred to other teachers. However, those classes still appear in my Multi-course Quick Eval. Below is an image of what I see.

Grouping Learners but not a group task
I have 2 groups of learners in a class. I have made 2 groups and 2 sets of assignments. When marking I still see the entire class, not just the students in that grouping. How can I change this? Do I need to make sections rather than groups?

Is there a way to filter Gradebook by submission dates?
It would be helpful as a teacher if I could see submissions/grades filtered by term/semester (or even better be able to choose a start/end date for a view). This would particularly with the Mastery Gradebook because I can then use this view to help with reporting in each of the terms. If this is not possible, I would like…

how is time calculated when listening
I have a quick question and thought you might be able to help me. When a student uses the 'listening' to content feature that's built into D2L does it track that as time logged in and engaging with the course? I encountered an issue today where a student claims she's been listening to all her lessons that way but was told…
