Auditor Tool and standards - so that our mentors can view progress of their Programme Members
We have Facilitators on our courses that track progress at section level. But each of our Programme Members also have a mentor, sometimes that mentor is a mentor to 3/4 people on the same course. We have about 30 sections on a course (so 30 faciliatators), with a total of around 5000 Learners (programme Members) and 4000…

Student access to brightspace API
Hi, I want to create a project where users can extract their registered courses, but I do not know if the API allows that access to students or if it's even feasible. Is there any resource I can refer to to find out what API calls I, as a student, can make? Thank you, Manmilan

I've had a strange experience wherein I uploaded a .dwg file (as a submitted assignment), then a .dxf file in the same assignment. I then deleted (moved to the trash bin) the .dwg file on the computer. I left both files on Brightspace. When I next looked at Brightspace, both were listed as .dxf files. Can anyone tell me…

For all of the files I've created there is a big blanks space at the end of the published file.
When I've finished using the html editor to input my lesson and materials and save the file, there's a large empty space at the end before the editing options etc. at the end. The extra space isn't visible in the html editor, only after the file is saved/published. The blank space is insanely long and confusing for…

New Content Experience vs. New Learner Experience

Content Progress
Could you please clarify how sessions are tracked and whether there could be any system errors affecting data accuracy? We observed that a student downloaded a document from Brightspace, yet the system recorded it as 1 visit | 0d 0h 0m 0s | Downloaded. How can a download be registered without any time allocation?…

Learners missing the "launch unit" button?
I'm curious how everyone else teaches their users how to navigate courses. Our courses all have a Widget based homepage with a Visual Table of Contents. Sometimes learners somehow get stuck on the Content page. I've received feedback that they don't realize that, in order to read the info in the Unit/Lesson page, they have…

Discussion - Feedback from instructor
Hi, Is it possible for instructors to know if the feedback they've given on a discussion post using the grading tool has been read by a student? In assignments - there is clearly a way for instructors to see this. But I don't see anything similar in discussions. Please help? -Linda
