When we built AI into Brightspace, we set a standard for what it had to deliver: time back for educators, student work that holds up as real learning, and access for everyone. The research is consistent on why that standard matters. AI grounded in course material and guided by the instructor helps students learn. AI bolted on without that structure can do the opposite.
Below is the scorecard we use, the early numbers against it, and the institutions who ran their own measurements and let us publish what they found.
Course-design time saved when educators build with D2L Lumi — the hours we want returned to teaching.

That’s how we measure. Here’s what the people using these tools every day found when they measured for themselves.
