New Discussion & Quiz Experience in Brightspace!

On Thursday, May 18th 2023, the Discussions & Quizzes experience in Brightspace received a face-lift!

D2L Brightspace has updated the interface when creating new Discussion Forums & Threads, and new Quizzes. The interface will match what we already see in Assignments: removing the tabbed organizational page structure across the top of the page, and highlighting the settings and features to a floating menu on the right side of the page. 

This change aligns the user interface across each of the major tools available in Brightspace. Previously created Discussions or Quizzes will not be impacted by the change.
