Downloading files on Pulse App
Although you can download files offline from the Pulse App, there really needs to be a functionality for downloading them to the device. Students now are forced to download the file on their computer, export it to their other device (phone or tablet) to use in a third-party note-taking app for annotations during lecture…

Is there a way to remove release conditions for one student?
When students have IEPs, there is often the accommodation to reduce number of tasks. Sometimes I would like to remove a task for one of these students, however the only work around I have found is to impersonate the student and submit something for them. I realize that I could create a "group" for that student to give them…

How to create a Section without questions — say just a reading?
How do you create a section in a quiz that doesn't have questions — such that you can create a page break. I want the students to start the activity by reading some text, then advance to the next page with various questions. In Moodle you can just select to break up questions, so 2 on this page, 3 on the next, 1 on the…

I do not admit students manually, when someone is on the waiting list and there is a free spot, students get automatically added.

Is Dropbox a default option in Brightspace, or an "extra"?
I have been using Brightspace since I started teaching in 2019 and have grown to love the platform (having used Web-CT/Blackboard and Moodle in a previous role). I recently started as a part-time sessional instructor for another college, and thankfully, they also are using Brightspace. However, a third-party "lab" platform…

Students uploading "unusual" assignment file types
Greetings! I teach an introductory stats class and have introduced my students to an open-source application called JASP. That platform can create files in a .JASP format. In the past, I have asked students to upload file formats like .doc and .pdf, but this is a new file format for me. I'd like for my students to be able…

Different Assignment options when accessed via NCE?
Hello, An instructor has run into an issue in which she created a text-submission assignment that students can only access via the New Content Experience (She removed the link to Assignments in the Nav bar to ensure students view the lesson). Unfortunately, when students access the assignment via NCE, they don't have all…

Has this Completion Status column been here all along? Is there any documentation on how it should be functioning? I assumed it was tied to the completion tracking in Course Contents, but checking a discussion as complete as a student (tracking set to Required Manual) did not cause any change to this column in grades.…

She also has a few with much longer extensions. Until…

Are there administrative data features where I can pull course stats?
I am wanting to gather data on the use of Brightspace at my university—we have online and in-person programs, so some instructors are hardly using Brightspace. I want to change that!! I am hoping to be able to view course data that could tell me which current semester courses have content in them and which course shells…
