When release notes come out about upcoming changes to Brightspace Data Sets, is it possible to get links to the information about the columns and their datatypes so we can make appropriate updates to databases? Or are these already provided if I find the specific pages for those datasets (such as the relational diagrams), or are the datatypes for the columns provided in the API calls?

Is there anyway to pull Outcome achievement data from group assignments as it does not appear in Mastery View?

Thanks

I am new to Brightspace, but our university is very interested in creating reports based on learning outcomes. I know that there is nothing in the insights report builder that looks at the achievement of learning outcomes and this would me something I would need to do manually in Performance Plus. Does anyone have a SQL Query that I could use as a starting point. I have my old query from the other LMS we used but I am very very green when it comes to SQL and it is appearing to be harder than I thought to figure out the data tables in Brightspace. Basically we have learning outcomes on quiz questions and I am looking to have a report that shows at the course level how an aggregation shown as a percentage of the correct/maximum points that could be earned for each learning outcome. I also want a way to see how many quiz questions were associated with each outcome. I also want to be able to filter by student in the course and get a breakdown on their correct/max scores. It sounds more complicated than it seems and I was able to successfully write this query in my old LMS so hoping this is something I could do moving forward.

Many thanks!

Since most of the MediaObjects are not found in the AVProcessed data set, joining them results in a lot of nulls in the latter columns such as type or size. I assumed that the files would be processed when they are uploaded, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Is AVProcessed maybe only revisions/edits after the initial upload? If that's the case, how would I get the type and size of media objects that have not been edited?

What is being logged for LastModified in MediaObjects for the ones that don't also appear in AVProcessed even though they have a RevisionCount? What exactly is being modified if it's not a media processing job? Would that also include just editing the title? Adding it to a course?

Thanks in advance for any clarification on these data sets!

Does anyone know if the Last System Login field in the Learner Usage dataset refers to a computer, mobile device, or a combination of the two? If mobile is included, does having the app run in the background count as access?

Thank you everyone!

One thing I would like to see is the LP versions that are compatible with retrieving the data sets, published with each major version update, and any changes to retrieval that might be associated.

Why are there three fields for this association? I'm not understanding how/why one Content item would have three different associated tools. Do I need to look at all three ObjectId fields when I'm trying to join Discussion Topics to Content Topics on TopicId?

Does anyone know of a way to see insights on Instant Messenger data from the learner and/or instructor point of view, e.g. number messages sent/reeived, reply time from instructor?

Any insight greatly appreciated!

I am almost able to re-create the data, except there is an issue with assignments that are listed as Draft Saved instead of Published. Either way, a date gets logged in the AssessedDate column in the Outcomes Demonstrations data set, which I am using to pull out the last 5 assessed activities (by ranking by date).

Is there a way to distinguish which are draft and which are actually published (and therefore will show up in the Mastery View) within these data sets?

TLDR - How can I distinguish between draft and published assignment submissions in the data sets for Outcomes?

I just need a report that shows all the quizzes in our system, and how many questions are in them. (e.g. Quiz A has 20 questions. Quiz B has 125 questions. Quiz C has 35 questions.) I'm pulling a blank on how to do this. 😒

For example, if you unenroll an inactive user from a course while in the user tool the user tool shows the user as Not Enrolled on the Enrollments tab and the action is logged in the Enrollment Log tab. When the datasets are updated the Enrollments and Withdrawals dataset shows the unenrollment occurred. However, the User Enrollments dataset still shows the user is enrolled.

I had a case where an enrollment occurred but did not show up in the User Enrollments dataset. I do not know what steps were involved for that enrollment.

Is anyone aware of other situations where enrollment changes are not recognized in the User Enrollments dataset?

Since it is not possible to bulk download graded rubrics from D2L and printing to PDF for every student in Class Progress is too tedious, I'm trying to work with the Rubric data sets to get this data but the documentation does not explain things very well. What exactly is an object (a criterion row?) and what does level refer to (the columns for each criterion)?

I joined Rubric Assessment (for total Score of assignment), Rubric Assessment Criteria (for the Score earned on each criterion and any text Feedback given to students, if any), Rubric Criteria Levels (for the text Description of each criterion), and Rubric Object Criteria (for the Name of each criterion) and was able to mostly recreate a graded rubric. At least I know which students received which score for each criterion, as well as their overall score in points for the rubric.

However, I'm looking for the text that labels each level in the Overall Score (example from screenshot: Good work, Strong but improvement possible, Needs improvement, Poorly prepared). Is that maybe in Rubric Object Levels? I tried joining this data set and pulling out Name, but that was just Level 1, 2, 3, etc. and it didn't seem to make sense.

Does anyone have clear explanations on how to use the Rubric data sets?

We are working with a faculty member who wants to track student usage (viewing content) in Brightspace and track how that may or may not impact student quiz scores and overall grade. We have worked with a data consultant in DOMO and were able to get some of the data, but it is an enormous file and would take a lot of effort to make it usable to her. Aside from the large amounts, it seems Brigthspace only tracks last access, not a timestamp of every time a student clicked or entered a resource. Any thoughts on how to approach this issue that I may be overlooking? Thanks! Lauren
