New Role Lecturer C
A new role has been created: Lecturer C. The role is identical to Lecturer B but differs in the way that this role is not automatically enrolled into all the sections of a course. You need do this manually. For more information about roles read this article.
Brightspace Editor – Path detection warning and configuration variable
A warning now appears when a user attempts to add an object (such as a link or image) in Brightspace Editor that has a path outside of the current course offering. The warning tooltip explains that if the item is copied to another course, the incorrect path would also be copied, potentially preventing learners from accessing the object.
This new warning alerts the content creator to ensure a consistent experience for learners.
New Content Experience – HTML Document renamed to Page
To simplify terminology and make clearer the type of content being created, the HTML Document content type is renamed to Page in the New Content Experience. This change of terminology is used on the Create New page and is applied to all courses using the New Content Experience (Lessons).
Groups – Restore groups and categories
A new Recycle Bin option is available in the Groups tool, enabling you to restore individual group units or entire categories within a course offering. When you restore groups, existing enrollments and lockers are also reinstated (if present). Any activities linked to the restored groups, such as discussions or assignments, can then be individually restored through their respective restore pages.
New Content Experience – Module depth increased to support up to five nested levels
With this release, the New Content Experience (Lessons) and Learner Experience now supports nested modules up to a depth of five levels. This allows instructors and administrators to more easily migrate content or courses with complex module structures. Previously, the nesting limit for modules was set to three levels.
