Provide better management of uploaded files
Uploading files for viewing by students is a useful feature, but does not provide the instructor adequate control. In particular, if a file (such as a PDF of a classroom lecture) is updated, the older version cannot be replaced (although it can be added under a new name). I file management page would be helpful.

Show pictures of all users next to their names.
This would include instructors, TAs, and students. It might also be a good idea to make this feature optional.

Enhancement Request #2990
Attendance assignment/category has been implemented. -
Allow sections from the same course, but taught by different instructors, to be combined into a single LS course!
We "team" teach the same course (several instructors, same course) - in blackboard we could combine the sections together so that the students had access to all materials provided by all professors. One stop shopping! Make this happen in LS.

Filtering individual sections in grades
When I want to look at only one section, I can use the "Filter By" tab at the top of the BYU gradebook, but I have to deselect all of the other sections to see only the one I want. After I deselect one section, the drop-down menu closes so I have to reopen it. It would be much easier if the drop down menu could stay open so that I could select/deselect the sections that I want to see.

Change comma-separated values in fill-in-the-blank to semi-colon delimited
We are concerned with comma-separated values in the fill-in-the-blank answers. We are wondering if it would be possible to change that to semi-colon delimited instead so their students can put in their high-dollar amounts in their fill-in-the-blank questions.-Accounting

Ability to provide textual information about the categories of different kinds of assignments or grades.
I want to be able to tell students something about that particular category of assignment or exam that is common to all assignments in that category. My work-around is to tell them on the first time they encounter an assignment from that category, but that seems less good because it is confusing about whether it applies to just that assignment or to all assignments in that particular category.

PARTIAL CREDIT FOR MULTIPLE RESPONSE EXAM QUESTIONS
Partial credit is possible for multiple choice questions (i.e. A=10 points, B=5 points, C=0 Points) However, in multiple response questions [check all that apply], you cannot get partial credit for checking 3 out of 4 corret answers... For example, if A, B, and D are correct answers, and a student marks A and B, they receive 0/3 points instead of 2/3. This used to be an option in the old Learning Suite, but it no longer is... Why not? Please add it back
23 votesThis has been completed with the August release. Partial credit is now possible. You can add in negative and positive values for different responses. http://lsinfo.byu.edu/news/byu-learning-suite-update-fall-2014

Quick Edit Page for Due Dates and Times
Currently, in order to change the due date and time for an assignment, I have to click into the assignment, and repeat the process for each assignment. I supervise 15 sections of the course, and have 5 different due dates and times for each assignment. The assignments page should show the due date and time the same way it shows the points available, so you can edit it on the one page instead of having to go into each assignment. This would literally save me hours each semester.
