Mass-uploading student-specific feedback PDF files

Question

I want to share individualized feedback with students on an exam they wrote in class. Each AI-generated feedback file includes the student's scanned exam. How can I mass-upload these student-specific feedback files? It is easy for me to include an org identifier in the file name of these PDF files.

Hi Stephen:

Thanks for reply. My understanding is that I can only bulk upload student-specific  feedback to assignments that students actually submitted. Without an assignment file submitted by students that bulk upload feedback function won't work. If this is the case, then this tool won't work for me. I'd like to flag my problem as a very important functionality D2L platforms should have. This functionality becomes crucial with AI grading, as such applications produce detailed feedback files as a result of written in-person exams. How can I contact someone at D2L to discuss adding this functionality? Cheers Kurt

Hello @Kurt.A.7932, thanks for your question, and welcome to the Brightspace Community!

At this time, Brightspace only allows for bulk-feedback within the Assignments tool. Feedback files within a quiz would need to be attached to each submission individually.

If the Assignment tool is what you're going to be using, please take a look at our documentation page for instructions on how it operates:

Hope that this helps! Should you have other questions don't hesitate to reach out to us.
