H5P
We just moved from Moodle to D2L — and of course we lost a fair amount of functionality in the question type arena — all the old OU question types, the wonderful cloze scripting. I'm just wondering before I start manually importing thousands of questions from our Moodle bank (alas the bulk import omits all our mark up).…

Can auto-save (to draft) be an option for evaluations?
On several occasions, due to accidental keystrokes, session timeouts, OS crashes, and multi-tasking forgetfulness, I have lost progress because I failed to frequently click Save Draft in the process of reviewing/annotating feedback on student submissions.

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.

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).

Evaluating an assignment (6 points) - asked for 'overall grade' (4% weighting)
I had set an assignment to be weighted as 4%, marked out of 6 points. However, when I go to do the actual evaluation I'm only presented with the 'overall grade' showing a mark out of 4. How do I get the 'points' to show up instead of (or at least in addition to) the weighting mark?

Sometimes I need to find the feedback left on an assignment for a student who has been withdrawn from a course. So what I usually do is go into Classlist --> Enrollment Statistics to find the student who was withdrawn, select the option to view their grades, then I can click on the link to their assignment folder…

Automate drop lowest grade
Is there a way for to automate dropping the lowest grade in the gradebook?

So for example, it may drop quiz 1…

Previewing text files that do not have the ".txt" extension
Within our programme (and I suppose any computer science-related programme), students work with text files that do not have the ".txt" extension, but, for example, ".c", ".cpp", ".py", ".h" and ".md". For assignments, they also submit these files to Brightspace via the submit points. When reviewing these assignments, it is…
