Delete an actual assignent
Hello, how can I delete an assignment. I am allowing the student to resubmit and not be graded on what she originally submitted. There used to be a way last year under Eval, now I can't find it. Thank you.
Adding a rubric to an assignment that uses Outcomes
I have added Learning Outcomes to a course and have connected different outcomes to different assignments. Each of the assignments has a rubric however I can't attach the rubric (greyed out). I disabled the Competencies tool as directed in order to use the Learning Outcomes tool, however now I am reading that in order to…

Has anyone experienced inconsistent “overdue” notices for assignments/quizzes completed on time?
Details: In one of our courses, we’re seeing a strange issue where a single assignment appears as “overdue” for all students in the Content area, even though every student submitted it before the due date. I impersonated eight different students, and the behavior is identical—only this one assignment shows the overdue…
"Hide Learner View of Grade" Assignment option not fully reverting and preventing Grades visibility
I am running into issues where the "Hide Learner View of Grade" option was used in an Assignment. It performed its function and was then turned off—everything in the Assignment and feedback screen (and the same from the student's view) was hunky-dory. The issue arose when looking at the associated Grade Item as the scores…
Editing the title of an Assignment isn't reflected in Grade Book
In Classic Experience— I have some assignments that are already linked to the Grade Book. I've noticed that if I edit the title of the Assignment, the title isn't automatically updated in the Grade Book. I have to edit the title in the Grade Book as an additional step. Is this correct? To try to get around this I tried…
Giving grades for students completing surveys
I would like to make an assignment in which the students complete a survey in the brightspace course page. It is easy to associate a survey with an assignment but does any one have experience then evaluating if students can be graded based upon their completion of the survey easily? Thanks in advance!
Assignment - Marked Incorrectly as Overdue in Content Area
We are experiencing an unusual issue in a course: one specific assignment is appearing as “overdue” for all students in the Content area, even though they submitted it on time. No other assignments are affected. I impersonated eight different students, and the problem is consistent—only this assignment shows as overdue…
Please change the default deadline time from midnight to 5 pm
Dear D2L, My institution uses your product for content delivery. I would like to re-think your default deadline time of midnight for assignments and quizzes. As you're likely aware users typically adopt default parameters in programs. There is ample evidence that midnight deadlines do not promote healthy work life balance…
Using Lockdown Browser & Monitor on an Assignment
Hello! Our English department is trying to combat students cheating on written assignments. I was hoping we could use Respondus on Assignments, but that isn't an option. I know instructors could set up a quiz with a Written Response option, but by the time students write several drafts of each component of an essay, they…
Feedback on an Assignment
Is there a way I could post my feedback responses somewhere, so that I do not have to retype them (or cut and paste them) every time for every student?

feedback comments not saving fully
Hello, When using the "note" function while grading, some of the comments are not saving fully and I have to go back in and re-type them. This seems to be a relatively new issue, and I am wondering if anyone else is having it? Thank you,
Student Accessing Assignment Past Due
Are students still able to see and access assignments that are past due for completion. I have a student that has had technical issues and I am now giving her an extension on assignments that she missed. She is claiming she cannot see them. Thanks@
Create restrictions on assignment text box submissions
Could a feature be added into the assignment text box submission where students are restricted from copying and pasting into the text box. Study forge has this feature included into quiz questions where you can turn on/off copying and pasting into written response questions. This feature could also be helpful in quizzes…
Preview Submissions
Good Afternoon, Normally when students submit assignments I can view the assignments in a preview window. It has been working for years. For some reason now it is requiring me to download each submission. I've tried multiple different browsers and a couple different computers. Nothing seems to be working. Suggestions? I'm…
Exceeding Points on an Assignment
Hi. I manage several sections of a course, each of which has it's own Brightspace page, though the pages are identical. We have an assignment that is graded with a rubric where students can get up to 5.5 points (there are 0.5 points built in as extra credit). The assignment itself is set up as 5 points total. In the grade…
Recent Update Caused Issue
I've had my courses set to "File Submission" because students were able to use the "Comment" field to submit share links (as from Google Docs), or they can use the "Add a File" button if they prefer uploading a file. This is preferable because when the assignment parameters are set to "File and Text Submission" students…
