Brightspace Community members now have the ability to bookmark a discussion thread so that you will never lose site of responses to your questions!
Why Bookmark a Discussion?
The discussions forum is a collaborative space to post questions, read and reply to threads, and share thoughts about your experience with Brightspace products and tools.
Stay in the loop about responses to your asked questions or questions and topics of interest.
