My daughter is taking an online course for her Bachelors in Nursing. She's trying to turn in an assignment that requires 12 citations. She's got everything in APA format in WORD, but when she copies it to Brightspace, it loses the formatting. It's not just the citations, but then entire post switches to the Brightspace fonts, colors, etc...

She's looked online but the directions they offer don't seem to help.

Any ideas?

This looks promising. Maybe she doesn't have that enabled.  THANK YOU!

She just needs to do this :

1) In the HTML Editor, click on "Paste from Word".
2) Paste the content into the new pop-up window that appears.
3) Click Insert. The content should appear with correct formatting.

The thing is, she's not getting those options which makes me think she needs to enable it, first.

Oh you're right, it has to be enabled first :

Ensure that the HTML Editor is enabled by navigating to the My Settings widget and selecting Account Settings.

She'll just need to follow all the instructions listed on the link I gave you.
