Good Afternoon
Each term I manually create sandbox courses for faculty. I want to make this process automatic. Is there a way to create a sandbox course for each course listed in the system each semester? If this process needs to be completed by the Colleague team please tell me where they should begin.

Hi @SonsuahrayPrice
How are your courses currently created? If you are using SIS integration, you can us a modified version of the course and enrollment feed files to create another course for each course that is been created.
However, what you're describing is basically having two versions of each course for the semester, which seems unnecessary and possibly very confusing for instructors.
What we have done at our school is to allow instructors to create their own sandbox/development courses, so only the instructors who want them get them created, and there's no confusion between the sandbox/development courses and the "real" official course from our SIS. Also, there's no need for a new sandbox/development course each term, when the instructor is teaching the same course for several terms--they just use the same one if they are making changes to the content.

Searching through 'All Pages' can be cumbersome, especially as the year goes on. Is there going to be a folders feature added so that pages can be sorted and categorized, similar to how documents and images can fall under different umbrellas?
For those of you who use the Learning Mastery Gradebook in your courses, what are your thoughts about the updates? Do they improve your understanding of students' outcome mastery? What about the interface? The old version certainly needed some improvements. I did like the pie charts, however. Hovering the mouse pointer…

I have now had a few cases of students' responses in New Quizzes not being recorded. Normally, students get a connection error and can restart, but here they get new questions one at a time with no indication of a problem until they try to submit the exam and find that they can't submit it. Students are losing 20-90% of…
