The Continuous Delivery model is different from the previous update model we had with Blackboard. We used a system of \u201cBig Bang releases\u201d (large updates released once or twice a year) with Blackboard.<\/p>\n<p>The Continuous Delivery model gives us regular monthly updates allowing for incremental and easily integrated changes with no downtime required for our Brightspace system. Our Continuous Delivery update occurs on the 4th Thursday of each month. D2L provides <a href=\"https:\/\/community.brightspace.com\/resources\/documentation\/release_notes\/current\">release notes<\/a> to help users stay up-to-date with the changes.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few updates in the February 2018\/10.7.10 Continuous Delivery release that were added to our system:<\/p>\n<h5>1) HTML Editor \u2013 Advanced Image Editing<\/h5>\n<p>The HTML Editor has been updated to include expanded image editing capabilities. Users can now edit images in place (including flipping, rotating, and adjusting brightness, sharpness, and color), edit the image description, and edit the size of the image.<\/p>\n<p><div align=\"center\"><a title=\"HTML Editor - image editing\" href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cat.xula.edu\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/advanced-image-editing.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cat.xula.edu\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/advanced-image-editing.png?resize=473%2C481\" alt=\"Advanced image editing screen in the HTML Editor\" width=\"473\" height=\"481\" \/><\/a><figcaption><small>Example of Advanced image editing screen in the HTML Editor<\/small><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<h5>2) Question Library \u2013 New Question Import Workflows<\/h5>\n<p>This feature adds new ways for instructors to search the Question Library when adding questions to a quiz. Using a slide in panel featuring the questions in a tree structure enables easy navigation of questions to be added to quizzes. The ability to sort questions by their source collection, question type, points value, and question text has also been added.<\/p>\n<p><div align=\"center\"><a title=\"Browse Question Library Import window\" href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cat.xula.edu\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/question-library.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cat.xula.edu\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/question-library.png?w=625\" alt=\"Browse Question Library Import window\" 367\" \/><\/a><figcaption><small>Example of the Browse Question Library Import window<\/small><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<h5>3) Quizzes - Due dates available<\/h5>\n<p>To improve the consistency of dates across tools in Brightspace, due dates are available for quizzes. This allows instructors to better communicate when quizzes are due, and better identify when a learner submits a quiz late. This change impacts when quizzes are marked as late. A quiz is now considered late if it is submitted after the due date is reached. Previously, \u2018late\u2019 referred to attempts submitted after the time limit of an \u2018enforced time limit\u2019 quiz was exceeded. Quizzes submitted after the due date are labeled \u2018submitted late\u2019. Quizzes submitted after the time limit is reached are now labeled as \u2018exceeded time limit\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>If you are interested in getting more information about these and all the February Continuous Delivery updates, refer to the <a href=\"https:\/\/community.brightspace.com\/s\/article\/Brightspace-Platform-February-2018-10-7-10-Release-Notes\">Brightspace Platform February 2018\/10.7.10 Release Notes<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Additonally, refer to the <a href=\"https:\/\/community.brightspace.com\/resources\/documentation\/release_notes\/current\">Brightspace Release Notes for Continuous Delivery Releases<\/a>, for details about all continuous delivery updates.<\/p>\n<h3>Want more information?<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/community.brightspace.com\/resources\/documentation\/release_notes\/current\">Continuous Delivery release notes<\/a><br \/>\nView all the <a href=\"https:\/\/cat.xula.edu\/food\/?s=Brightspace+%2Brecap\">Brightspace training recaps<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/xulacat.wikispaces.com\/Brightspace+Known+Issues\">Brightspace Known Issues<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/cat.xula.edu\/food\/brightspace-tip-2-sandbox-courses\/\">Request a sandbox course<\/a><br \/>\nSign-up for <a href=\"https:\/\/cat.xula.edu\/events\/index.php?mode=index&status=all&tag=Brightspace\">Brightspace training sessions<\/a><br \/>\nYou can find <a href=\"https:\/\/documentation.brightspace.com\/EN\/-\/-\/-\/welcome_page.htm\">Brightspace help<\/a> at D2L's website.<br \/>\nJoin the <a href=\"https:\/\/community.brightspace.com\/\">Brightspace Community<\/a>.<br \/>\nTry these <a title=\"Brightspace How-to\" href=\"http:\/\/cat.xula.edu\/food\/brightspace-documents\/\">Brightspace How-To documents<\/a>.<br \/>\nVisit our <a title=\"Brightspace FAQs\" href=\"http:\/\/cat.xula.edu\/food\/brightspace-faq\/\">Brightspace FAQs<\/a> for additional Brightspace information<br \/>\nor <a title=\"Schedule 1-on-1\" href=\"http:\/\/jflorent.youcanbook.me\/\">schedule a one-on-one session<\/a>, <a title=\"Send email\" href=\"http:\/\/cat.xula.edu\/mail\/?to=31\">email<\/a>, or <br \/>call Janice Florent: (504) 520-7418.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>D2L (the company that owns Brightspace) uses Continuous Delivery to update our Brightspace system.
