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…

New Experience - files uploaded to content
Hi there, Files uploaded in the content of a course, regardless of type, all end up being PDF docs in student view. However, some assignments in Business and Office Admin courses require students to make changes to a Word doc, or to complete accounting problems in an Excel Spreadsheet. This isn't possible if Brightspace…

How do students see if a standard is linked to a quiz question.
I impersonated a student to see what they see when taking a quiz with questions aligned. I did not see any way for the student to know if the quiz question was aligned to a standard. Is there something extra I need to do? or is there no way for students to know if a question is linked to a standard?

Similarly for lessons, is the lesson that you create meant to contain the content or is the bulk of the content meant to be made up of…

Uploading .xlsx files to Content - any config settings here?
Hello, I've noted that when uploading .xlsx files (Microsoft Excel files) to a course's content, it automatically converts the file to a .pdf file. A workaround I use is saving the Excel file as a .csv file as that file type does not get converted. Is there any way to configure our site so that .xlsx files do not get…

I did a screen capture and posted what I think is going on to my students. But I wonder if there is, in fact, a way of disabling the "new window" approach and simply have…

Markdowns automatic in Content Editor?
Hello, I was just curious if there was a way to turn automatic markdown updates off, whether it's a browser setting or a setting in Brightspace. Like if I wanted to italicize something, I'd do " * Italicize this *", without the spaces. You can really do it with anything on this: Thanks!
