How can teachers ensure they see student submissions immediately when they are submitted?

Has anyone been encountering problems with Release Conditions lately?
I was wondering how to control the visibility of assignment submission folders and quizzes according to sections. I have attached released conditions to a Teacher Facilitator role so that they can only see assignment and quiz submissions specific to their section, but for some reason, they can still see all assignment…

How do you make the description of a check list visible to all users?
Hey all, I've created a check list, but every time I enter in learner view, or impersonate a learner, I can't seem to see the description I wrote for the check list, just the options. I've searched for a solution, but can't seem to see any settings option in our instance of D2L. Attached is a screen shot of what I see. The…

Is it possible to link assignment submissions to the portfolio tool where a student's assignment upload automatically gets sent to their portfolio as well? If possible, how can I set this up? If not possible, would something like an intelligent agent be of any help creating this assignment-portfolio link?

text submission locked
Teachers are finding that sometimes they accidently set an assignment to "text submission" vs "file submission" and once they have had a submission, they can no longer change that option. Which in my experience to change that one setting means I need to copy the assignment, delete the old one and manually update any marks…

Is there a way to export an entire class' marks broken down by rubric criterion for an assignment?
I associated a rubric with an assignment. The gradebook shows the summation of the rubric marks, but I'd like a spreadsheet with the grades for every student and what they received for each criterion. Is this possible in D2L? I am an instructor.

Is there a way to only list student usernames in Dropbox
We tried using anonymous marking for our Dropbox assignments, but when 5 out of 10 students are selected to have their assessments published, all 10 students will no longer be anonymous in the Dropbox folder.

Strange Comment Behavior. Text Shifting Out of Place in Sentences
One of our faculty experienced the cursor acting strangely when leaving comments on an assignment. While she was typing the comment box would sometimes shirt her text back to a point in the sentence it did not belong. So "The dog ran across the street" becomes "across the street The dog ran". Has anyone else heard of this?…
