Discussions - Error Message
Good morning, I have students who have shared they are not able to reply to discussions and receive an “Internal Error” message.

TurnItIn Enabled on Discussion Boards?
Hello community I wonder if TurnItIn can be enabled on the discussion boards? We have started using an outside tool for discussions because of AI use in our online courses, but we are missing the accessibility and some additional features (groups and rubrics) of the discussions in D2L. Would love to get rid of this other…

Option to add a DUE date when creating a Discussion
Why is there no option for adding a DUE date (not END date) when creating a Discussion? I would like to see the options for adding dates to be the same as they are when creating a quiz (dates for DUE, START, and END) so that the student still has the ability to submit past the due date. At this time we only have the option…

I have an instructor who has a series of graded discussion topics in his course. He wants to add a due date to each topic but neither of us can see this option anywhere.

Search for terms in a discussion
When reading posts, I might want to refer a student back to someone else's post, but I don't remember the content of everyone's post.

Improvement of Brightspace
Good morning. I am using BS as a faculty in Higher Education for the first time. Here are my suggestions for improvement: - Students should not be allowed to edit their posts on the discussion board.
