Hello,
Is there a way to default pin current term courses for students?

We are going to provide access for students after terms have completed, but want to know if we can create a way for the current courses to be pinned by default?

Thanks,

Pam

    Hi @Pamela.D.673,

    Currently, there isn't a way to select default pinned courses for students. This is something that the individual student can choose to do, however, two suggestions below:

    If not already, depending on your role in Brightspace, an Administrator can customize the My Courses widget to be grouped by semester/term, that way students will see courses grouped for their current term and/or past terms (if students can access past courses).

    Additionally, an annoucement can be posted to encourage and show students how to pin their current term courses and the benefits of doing so.
