Can students view the Master View? If so what needs to be done to set that up?

I teach Middle School Science, and many of my standards require students to draw models. Does Brightspace have an assignment option where the students can use shapes and drawing tools to create models? I am aware of the option to download external files, but my students often struggle with that.

Is it possible to set a criteria to identify users who have not submitted anything for 'x' amount of time? I am new to Brightspace, coming from Moodle, and in Moodle I had a plugin that I could identify students who had not submitted for a certain length of time (that I could set to whatever I wanted). I see I can sort my…

Hello, We would like to hide the student's submissions from the Parent & Guardian Dashboard. We would like the parent to only have access to the marked rubric, grade and teacher feedback. We do not want to give access to the submitted work. I did not find this permission under 'Roles & Permissions' under Admin Tools. Thank…

Please Help With this issue, Because Email Creation is Not Sent to Gmail only sent to Domain Email. All Settings are checked. Please help

I am helping a colleague who combines his 6 separate classes into one course shell. He has done it successfully for years. This year, we mistakenly put a few students into the wrong section. When we add them to the correct section, they are still a part of the wrong section. We have both searched all over the place and can…

Hi D2L and ReadSpeaker Clients, In the last rolling update from D2L, something happened that caused the D2L to skip the ReadSpeaker webReader player in quizzes. D2L currently has an internal/defect ticket (#01882671,) and they are currently working with ReadSpeaker developers to correct the issue. Since ReadSpeaker does…

I'm wondering how you might be able to track completion of a course when there is a core module and then a set number of elective modules that a user has to complete. We're doing this for our staff professional development and want to give some choice and agency to them. There might be one or two core components that they…

We did not use the IPSIS tool or holding tank to create student accounts and we are seeking an option to create the parent/guardian-child relationships in Brightspace so families can monitor progress through the app.

I was wondering if it's possible to choose which D2L sections show up when my students use the Pulse app? Is that something my district has decided? Can I, as a teacher, customize my course so that when students open it on Pulse it doesn't automatically show Activity Feed, Content, and Grades? Our school district does not…

Is there a way, after students have take a quiz you can set the settings so they can go back in and see which questions they got correct and which ones they got incorrect?

Anyone know where I can configure the landing page for users (depending on their role) within vLE? Teachers should land on the THP page whereas students should land on their school's page.

We have several students who have new courses this year and need to be unenrolled from their previous courses.

How can the instructor view or provide feedback on a completed self-assessment?

I turned off the new content view by mistake - where do I turn it back on? I can't find it.

Hi, I've copied the components of a class I previously taught to this years class. I have all my content via google docs, however BS is not letting the students copy the document into another google doc. They can only download the document as a word doc. I tried to copy the doc from BS myself and it doesn't allow me either…

We want to split up a class that got too big for the teacher. Is it possible to copy student work already completed to a new section of a class?

Good Day I'm actually a parent of a student, how do I upload my PGP Public key into the system? I also would like to know how an Org can set mandatory PGP for all students, administrators and teachers. Furthermore, I'm sure I'm just not seeing the option, since no modern platform would forgo such a based staple of email /…
