Lock assignment evaluation
Hi, we have noticed that an evaluation of an assignment can always be changed by instructors. Is there any way we can 'lock' the evaluation so it can't be changed anymore? Thanks in advance! Regards Roel van Doorn
Why is brightspace not allowing me to submit an assignment?
I recently had an assignment due and spent multiple hours trying to get it submitted, but it kept getting stuck on the submission screen. There was no loading bar or anything. When I pressed submit it was like I never did. I tried to submit amongst various devices and different wifi networks but the same result was always…
24 Hour Clock in D2L
How do I change my settings so that my assignment due dates are shown in the standard 24 hour format? I've been using the 24 hour clock for 18 years, and honestly, it's really hard to use AM/PM now. For me it's an accessibility thing, just like needing to use the Dvorak keyboard.
Can I see data about who is grading assignments in my course?
Hello, I work in a Career Center and we use a non-credit Brightspace course as a way for students to submit resumes, cover letters, etc for review from our staff. These are submitted as Assignments. It would be great if I could see data about who is grading which submissions, how many, when is a heavy traffic time, etc. Is…
How to create a timed assignment -- let students choose a 3-hour window any time of the day
My students' midterm is upcoming. They will download a pdf sheet with the questions, answer those questions in a word file or on paper then photograph and compile into a pdf, and then upload their answers. Since this is a remote class and I have students in many different timezones, they should be able to start their…

D2L Course Page freezing
Has anyone else had any trouble with the D2L course page freezing in Chrome browser? This has happened to me three times now, and each time it has been in a different page of my course.

Observed in Person assignment
Hello, We have an Observed in Person assignment, in which the student marks the "complete" button. There is a grade item associated with this assignment. When the student clicks "Complete" will that populate the grade item, or does the faculty still have to publish an evaluation?
Voice Recorded Feedback
Hello Everyone, I have just begun using the voice recording option for giving students feedback. For some reason, some of my students do not seem to see the recorded feedback link to access it, and I don't know the student site well enough to help them navigate. Does any one have any insight on what the problem might be…

BS locking up while trying to save
Over the past few weeks, BS has been locking up and going to a greyed-out screen when I am trying to save feedback. It has happened with different browsers, different courses, different assignments, and different networks.
HEIC file preview not supported
Hello, can you please clarify (or work on incorporating) HEIC image preview for assignment submissions? This has been a standard format for Apple devices since 2017. https://www.adobe.com/creativecloud/file-types/image/raster/heic-file.html
Is there a way to incorporate an automatic late penalty for assignments or discussion posts?
I have a late policy in my syllabus that states a student will lose x% per day late. I was wondering if there was a way to automatically do this in assignments or discussion rubrics? Thanks!
Can an intelligent agent be used to tally overall lateness of assignments for a class? or workaround

Assignment display changes that are not included in April release notes
Why was the date when the assignment feedback was last saved changed to a tooltip in the last update? I can find nothing about it in the release notes. We use that date for many reasons, like instructors knowing where they left off Grading/ reviewing assignments, especially during exam time, which is right now. We use…
Is there a way to remove "new submission notifications" for ungraded assignments in bulk?
I have assignments in my D2L course that are completion-based extra credit, and I want to remove the new submission notifications for them all but can't find a way to do that in bulk. I can't find a way to get the notifications to disappear unless I comment on each submission one by one, which makes no sense for me to do…
Time Restricting Assignments
Thank you for any help you can provide. I am brand new to Brightspace. We are looking for a way to deliver "cases" (in PDF format) to your graduate students this summer, and to have our students attempt and submit responses (in Word format) within a set period of time - for example 90 minutes. I've found that I can create…
releasing the course
Is there a way to not release the course until the activation assignment is completed?
