Would the system crash?
Hi, I was wondering if the system would crash if 1000+ students all tried recording a video note in their assignment submission at the same time? Thank you

Creating a video submission assignment with special requirements
Hello everyone! I know it is possible to get students to record a video to submit as an assignment, but is it possible to disable the ability to re-record? Essentially we want students to record and submit their first attempt. They only get one chance at recording. Is this possible? Alternatively, is it possible to be able…

Issues with Cursor within D2L
This is such a weird problem, but when I insert feedback within the assignment itself by adding a comment, the cursor moves back to the beginning of the sentence. For example, if I start typing "Missing…," as soon as I type the "M," before I move on to the "i," the cursor moves back to the space before "M." I don't even…

The Drawing tool during inline evaluations has started making rectangles and won't stop
I've already used the inline evaluation tool to mark up several of my students' assignments. But now the Drawing Tool makes vector rectangles and nothing else. When I place a point to draw, it is the origin of a rectangle. The highlighter tool still works as intended (freeform lines/drawing). Even when I go back to old…

Is there a way to have draft assignment grades visible to instructors in the Gradebook?
We have faculty members who are grading assignments. If they enter a numeric grade, and then click the "Save as Draft" button, the grade and feedback are saved. However, the numeric grade does not appear in the gradebook, to the instructor, before it is published. Sometimes instructors want to go back and see the list of…

Manually entering grades and then publishing the same assignment
Hi there, I want students to see their mark now but not see their assignment feedback. So I want to manually enter their marks in the grade book while keeping the assignment in draft mode, unpublished. Once I'm ready to publish the assignments, will this be a problem or will the marks just override what is already entered…

Downloading marked rubrics and inline comments + marking PowerPoint presentations
I have a few questions with this query. I have an academic who didn't know about setting up groups for group assignments. So only one student in a group is submitting. This means the other students in the group will not see any feedback or the marked rubric. We do have a solution but to make it less cumbersome, I told her…

Auto text on Brightspace?
Hello, I'm looking for ways in which the assessment process can be more efficient for faculty and I'm wondering if there's an auto text feature (like you find in Microsoft word) that allows you to save snippets of feedback that are commonly used and can easily be edited to personalize the feedback. Thanks, Yildiz

Brightspace activity evaluation pages not loading properly in new tabs
(I asked this question in a different forum/category, but wasn't able to get an answer.) For the sake of speed and efficiency while grading, I would like to be able to open multiple "Activity Evaluation" pages in separate tabs. When I try to do this, however, the pages do not load properly. Here is an example what an…

Assignments and grades services extension with LTI 1.3
Is there a way to get startDateTime and endDateTime when querying for a line item? We must be consistent with the dates between our tool and the platform hosting our deep link. During our query to the line item endpoint, we can get the line item but it is limited to ID, scoreMaximum, label, resourceId, and resourceLinkId.…

Can teachers mark a student's assignment as completed (like an override)?
Sometimes students submit work outside the requested method (e.g. on paper instead of file submission). Is there a way I can mark their assignments as completed, so that it no longer shows on their to-do list after I publish a mark and give feedback? It seems silly to have an incomplete/unsubmitted assignment that has been…

How can I change the submission receipt email template?
I would like to modify the submission receipt email template. Is it possible to make changes to it? Additionally, is there a way to bulk add or edit assignment email notifications? If a course has 50 assignments, it takes a lot of time to edit each one individually to add or remove notifications.

linked assisgnments
I imported a course from Blackboard to Brightspace. In Brightspace the assignments now appear both in Content and Assessment. If I delete the assignment in one place (say, Content), will it also delete the assignment in the other place (say, Assessment)? Also, if I now decide to open a module that contains information from…

Downloading all submissions for an assignment - how to change the order in the .zip file?
Brightspace shows the students in alphabetical order by last name - great! However, when it bundles up all the submissions into one .zip file, it's all in order by student ID number, so it's all over the place. Any way to change the order in the .zip files? Had become accustomed to the order in the file matching the order…

Can I block integrated Google Translate in Brightspace ?
For example, whenever I type in Spanish on a Chrome browser, my browser automatically corrects my Spanish spelling and grammar. This happens across all of Google Chrome. It happens in my Gmail account all the time. Is there a way to turn off this feature on the Brightspace platform?

Submission Contents
Is there a way to view what I submitted if the assignment has been reset? I submitted an assignment and got the confirmation email, later I asked the instructor to reset the assignment so that I could resubmit. I don't have the original saved.
