The Challenge

When Faculty Workflows Are Fragmented, Burnout Becomes an Institutional Risk

Disconnected Tools Create More Work

When course authoring, grading, communication and analytics live in separate systems, faculty lose time moving between platforms instead of focusing on students.

Repetitive Tasks Drain Time and Energy

Rebuilding courses each term, updating content and repeating the same setup work makes teaching harder to sustain at scale.

New Capabilities Can Add Complexity

AI and other tools can help, but only when they fit into real teaching workflows. Without that connection, they often create more effort—not less.

Limited Visibility Delays Student Support

When insight into student progress is hard to find, faculty have to spend more time searching for signals and less time acting on them.When insight into student progress is hard to find, faculty have to spend more time searching for signals and less time acting on them.

“Ever since our switch to D2L Brightspace, our workload on the admin and faculty side has decreased exponentially. We used to have to backup and reset each class every semester. Now, each iteration of a class has its own separate course shell. We have seen more engagement with content, and a wider variety of learning activities being used, including Video Assignments, and Group Assignments being built into the LMS.”

Andrew Edwards, Director of Teaching and Learning Technologies, William Jewell College
