How are you applying late penalties for late assignment submission?
Hi everyone, Given that an automatic late penalty is not a feature in Brightspace (and not gaining much traction in PIE), I am curious how other institutions/organisations are currently applying deductions for late submission penalties, please? Mostly, our academics are calculating this manually, but this is time-consuming…

Asynchronous Learning - Video Completion
We are looking at potentially incorporating some asynchronous elements into our programs. The idea is to have students watch a lecture video and the assignment or activity is not complete until the video is watched completely.

Adding "Sumbmitted" to the Grades Section
Basically, what I stated in the title. It would be very helpful to review what needs to be submitted in the Grades section vs. having to go to the module content. In all fairness, my university has just switched to D2L Brightspace, so we are still getting our bearings together. That said, I think this suggestion would make…

Our math teachers are really wanting to use MyOpenMath, but the dynamic feature of quiz questions is not integrating in Brightspace. We have tried uploading the course file offered by MyOpenMath but as it's created by volunteers, we don't have anyone to call to ask for troubleshooting on their end. My understanding of the…

Can the creators of Brightspace...
Do something about the grading system with Brightspace? Maybe bring back the transparency of known mistakes on the quizzes/exams the same way Blackboard had it? Therefore, seeing where I made the mistake and not go by it through trial and error? Or cramming another set of unspecified hours by studying the same material? If…

I contacted their director directly, but she didn't answer back, (assuming she's out on vacation). In response to my outreach about a concern about the…
