Take from a super user of 7 years: Brightspace's personalization tools (release conditions, replacement strings, etc.) are amazing and powerful when used well! #D2L #Brightspace @robletcher @D2L @Brightspace

Pausing to share a little @D2L love. While composing my discussion post for my Intro to Drawing class, I am prompted to add alternative text to the image I attached. #Accessibility ftw! Kudos to @d2l & the #instructionaldesign team at @UMUC for making that #design decision.

Google Apps integration in @D2L + the new content interface is the best of online learning IMO. Looking forward to rolling out my virtual classroom this fall! #BackToSchool #EdTech #OnlineLearning
