I am trying to figure out how to post a thread on the discussion board?
Health informatics requires us to post an introduction this week. I cannot figure out how to post on the discussion board.

Are there any APIs where we can fetch the student's responses/answers for assignments in D2L?
Where can I locate the posts made by students in a discussion forum? Which data set and field to use
Where can I find the archived posts made by students in a discussion forum? I’m interested in reviewing these posts to gain insights into the topics discussed, the questions raised, and the solutions proposed by the students. Could you guide me on how to navigate the data hub to locate these archived discussions? I am…

Course End Date Access
Does granting special access to students with dropbox items, discussions, or quizzes allow them to complete the assignments after a course end date has passed? Or is the only option to allow a student more time to complete their coursework is extend the actual end date of the course offering temporarily?
Reminders for Discussion Board
I have a two-part question: Is there a way to get the due dates in the Discussion Board to show in the course home calendar? Is there a way to trigger an email or intelligent agent when a due date on an assignment passes? I want it to be independent of the existence of a student submission. Thanks
Disscusion Board
Hello, An instructor created two discussions one for students to post their summery of their paper it was open from Dec. 6-8. Then the instructor created another discussion for you students to reply to their fellow students Dec 9-11. I'm sure you know what I'm gonna ask but hold on. Her students posted their summaries, the…

Hi! Would it be possible to embed the entire Discussion page for a given unit within a lesson page, saving the user from having to click the " View the discussion in the Discussions tool." link? Thank you
Definition of “Anonymous” differs
An instructor brought this to my attention the other day. Has anyone noticed that the definition of "Anonymous" is different between “Discussion Topics” and “Surveys”. In fact, in the context of discussion posts, the term "Anonymous" seems a bit misleading. As an Instructor, here’s what I see when I click on the ? to see a…
Assess Anonymous Posts
How do you assess anonymous posts in discussions? It appears that the posts/replies that are posted as anonymous do not appear when assessing the topic.
Is there a way to connect Discussions with Assessments?
I would like to connect Discussions with the Assignments tab somehow. I typically assign Discussion boards as low-stakes writing assignments and would like to have a Due Date (not an end date) that would allow for late submissions as well as the option to have the Discussion Post assignment show up under the Assignments…
Discussion posts hidden from students when created in Content tool as a new forum?
We have turned on the New Content Experience for all of our current summer term courses. A faculty member reached out to me with a question because his Discussion posts (which he was creating in Content and then toggling to visible later) where not visible for students. I figured out that the issue comes from the creation…
"Invisible" Forum
I have a Discussion Forum in my courses that is not showing up for students. Students can see the html page I have with instructions, but there isn't anything following it. Just to clarify, it is set to "visible" on my end. My view: Student's view: Any idea on how to make this forum visible for students? Thanks :)
Using a Moderated Survey or Discussion
Two things... Is it possible to create a moderated discussion/survey that does not carry a point value? Also, when creating a survey, that was made available, however, students are still unable to see it?
Turnitin
Can I use Turnitin in a discussion activity?
Force subscriptions for Discussion Forums
Is there a way to require students to receive notifications about recent posts to particular topics or threads in BrightSpace? As far as I can tell, students have to actively "choose" to subscribe. Keywords: subscribe, subscription, forum, thread, posting
