I found an article that says spell checker can "be turned off for all quizzes at the org unit level". I have no clue where to do that. Can someone explain where I need to go? Thanks :)
Hello @Chelsey.Y.865
Thanks for connecting with the Brightspace Community.
Config variable d2l.Tools.Quizzing.ShowSpellCheckInAttempts determines whether the spell checker is displayed for users when taking a quiz
Under the variable, you can put your desired org unit to turn the feature on or off.
Thanks and Regards,
Bharti

I have no clue where to find this. I don't know what a config variable is.
I've looked under Course Administration and then Tools. That's where I would expect to find this, but it's not there….
@Chelsey.Y.865 Configuration variables can only be set by D2L admins at your institution. It's probably someone in your IT department. It's not something that can be changed by regular users.
@Jennifer.W.973 So if I ask the D2L admins at my institution to set this does it affect all teachers or only the teachers who choose to turn off spell check?
Once it's set can I turn off spell check myself as a teacher or does that need to be done at the admin level as well?
@Chelsey.Y.865 It will most likely set it for the entire institution, but your admins might be able to add exceptions for individual courses (if they are willing to). I don't believe instructors would have any control over it within courses.
