Section titles/text in Question Library do not update in Quizzes (and vice versa)
I recently discovered that when the Section Title or Section Text is changed in the Question Library, the updates do not carry over to any Quizzes where that section is used. Similarly, if the text is edited directly within a Quiz, the changes do not sync back to the Question Library. This behaviour is different from how…
Exclude as Final Grade Option
Hello, Our syllabus acknowledgement quiz will be pass/fail and should not be calculated into the final grade. I do not have the "Exclude for Final Grade Calculation" option that is on the right side of the screen. Is there a way to enable this?
Student viewing feedback on quizzes
Is there a way to tell if a student has read feedback on a quiz? In assignments, I see that feedback has been published, and when a student has read the feedback but in quizzes there is no way to see if they have viewed the feedback unless I am missing something. Thank you,
Grading the Graders across multiple sections
When offering several sections of a course with TAs and common assessments with a short answer/essay question, is there an easy way to produce a report that shows: the grader, the assigned grade on that item (not the average as is show in the statistics under Manage Quizzes) across all the sections? If not, is there an…
When exporting a quiz with images, do I need to select ALL COURSE FILES in the export settings?
I'm looking to export a quiz into a Brightspace package (not copy, but export). If I have images in the quiz, do I need to select ALL COURSE FILES in the export setting?

Can Brightspace let learners retake a quiz with new questions instead of the ones they got wrong?
I'm setting up a quiz where a learner has to get 100% score in a single attempt in order to pass. If the learner fails at the attempt, the learner can re-attempt the quiz but the incorrect question has to be different. Is this currently available with Brightspace? To my understanding, reattempt only incorrect questions…
Has anyone experienced inconsistent “overdue” notices for assignments/quizzes completed on time?
Details: In one of our courses, we’re seeing a strange issue where a single assignment appears as “overdue” for all students in the Content area, even though every student submitted it before the due date. I impersonated eight different students, and the behavior is identical—only this one assignment shows the overdue…
Quiz Question - Max Points
Hello everyone, The quiz section for this gradebook should be weighted at 3 with a max points of 30. The syllabus quiz is pass/fail and should not be 100 points. I am able to changes the syllabus to pass/fail but the system will not allow me to put the max points to 0. How can I make the Quizzes section worth only 30…
API Quiz Creation Issue - "Provided JSON is invalid or does not match the expected format."
I am using PHP with Guzzle, and I can't seem to crack through this problem. I have tried a number of config options and how the data is formatted with zero luck. Does anyone have a PHP/Guzzle example when posting data to the Brightspace API? Does anyone know why I am not getting more description error messages back? Any…
Please change the default deadline time from midnight to 5 pm
Dear D2L, My institution uses your product for content delivery. I would like to re-think your default deadline time of midnight for assignments and quizzes. As you're likely aware users typically adopt default parameters in programs. There is ample evidence that midnight deadlines do not promote healthy work life balance…

Using Lockdown Browser & Monitor on an Assignment
Hello! Our English department is trying to combat students cheating on written assignments. I was hoping we could use Respondus on Assignments, but that isn't an option. I know instructors could set up a quiz with a Written Response option, but by the time students write several drafts of each component of an essay, they…

Issues with mathematical/significant figure precision
In quizzes, has anyone else experienced an issue where the correct answer changes in certain mathematical/significant figures questions? There seems to be no rhyme or reason and in the auto grading function, some students' responses will be marked correct and others will be marked incorrect even though all had the same…
