I use specifications grading, which is always hard to express using an LMS because it operates like a checklist. There are no points or percentages. It was suggested to me that perhaps the "formula grading system" would be a good option for specs grading in Brightspace. However, I am having trouble finding any training…

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.

I am having trouble accessing recordings from recent Guided Training Webinars. Specifically, I attended last week's Q&A webinar (October 6, 2026) but had to leave before it ended due to another commitment. When I try to access the recording, the link opens a dialog that offers to register me for future Q&A webinars, but…

My university recently switched to Brightspace, and one feature I really miss is being able to view all of my course grades in one place. Currently, I have to navigate into each course and open the Grades section just to see how I am doing. This becomes frustrating and time-consuming when managing multiple courses. I would…

Hello, I am in the process of setting up the intelligent agent tool in my course. May I ask if the release conditions can only be set-up for one item in the course? Lets say I want it to run if students did not submit for an assignment. Is it possible to configure to where the conditions are set for all assignments in the…

Hi, everyone! I just spoke with a student who installed the new MacOS 27 Golden Gate. It included a Safari update and she could access every other tab except the CONTENT one. It was like this in 2 of her classes. Here is a picture. If this happens to anyone else, she got it working through Chrome, but has anyone else run…

Because one of the courses I teach is highly participatory, the course policy is that a student's final grade is deducted by 6.667% for each unexecused absence beyond 3. For example, if a student has earned a 95% in the class, but has 4 unexcused abscences, their final grade would be a 88.333%. I cannot figure out a way to…

I have been using a widget to embed my Twitter feed onto my D2L Brightspace homepage. Things changed when Twitter became X. The widget is still there but my feed won't display unless the student is logged into to X. I'd like to switch to another platform, however, I can't seem to find any APIs or workarounds that, well,…

Our University is transitioning to NCE in about 2 weeks. I am an instructor for a course that has a 40% of students on a mobile device. When University's switch to NCE is the NLE configuration typically "On" instead of "Off"? I ask this because if the NLE configuration is "Off" - the Surveys and Discussions open in a new…

I'm new to using Brightspace VLE. We are using the New Content Experience in Brightspace. I have seen documentation that refers to a bookmarking feature where students can bookmark content to return to. However, I cannot see this in the course Content. There is 'Bookmarks' option on the 'Content Browser' homepage widget,…

My students can't see the rubric feedback. They can view the plain rubric in the assignment area, but when the rubric is filled out and their grade is published, the only thing they can see in the grades section is the overall grade, overall feedback, and a link to their file submission. With a lot of putzing around, my…

Hi, In D2L we are given an option of setting the code to display zero grades as zeros, or as not displaying them at all. Unfortunately, this appears to be an all-or-nothing option for a class. I have a situation where I want some assignments set to a "no grade is a zero" option, but other assignments as a "do not display a…

We would like to give some staff access to only the class progress of certain students. What is the best way to accomplish this?
