Activity description not appearing for students
One of our instructors is moving her class to the new content experience. Her LTI assignments each have a description that would appear in the old content layout, but these descriptions are now not visible to students. Is this a limitation of the new content experience?

Do Annotation View settings stick submission-to-submission?

Very basic course offering/section question
Hi all, We've been on Brightspace since Summer 24 so still fairly new. I'm troubleshooting an issue we're having with Crosslisted courses and it's making me question how we have courses coming over via Ellucian ILP in the first place.
