Delivering continuous learning experiences on and off campus

Tshwane University of Technology (TUT) is the largest residential university in South Africa, attracting around 65,000 students a year. Widely known as a people’s university, TUT offers a rich multicultural student life, makes higher education accessible to students from all walks of life and helps create employability among the youth population of South Africa. In 2020/21 TUT succeeded in putting the D2L Brightspace learning platform at the heart of its university’s learning experience for tens of thousands of students.

Elevating student engagement through block learning

Higher education’s transition to fully online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic was a catalyst for change at institutions that use technology to widen participation and maximise student engagement. The University of Suffolk conducted a pilot of a transformative ‘block and blend’ teaching and learning model to optimise COVID-necessitated distance learning outcomes and pave the way for innovative course formats in the future. The D2L Brightspace platform was integral to course and module design and delivery, enabling an active blended learning approach.

Empowering students with independent learning

How engaging learning experiences have helped a University of Huddersfield professor achieve 100 percent pass rates
Traditional approaches to university teaching can make it difficult for instructors to identify gaps in student understanding, which impacts pass rates and creates barriers to educational attainment. The University of Huddersfield is using the Brightspace platform to shape engaging blended learning experiences and reports that the pass rate for one professor’s courses has been boosted to 100 percent.
