Simplify the learner experience

You want to make sure every learner feels connected to their peers and instructors even when they aren’t together face-to-face.

Students can locate course materials, submit assignments, take quizzes, collaborate with peers, share resources, view upcoming events, and track their own progress—all without leaving the LMS! With an easy-to-navigate interface and an option for mobile notifications, Brightspace can set you and your institution on the road to learner success and satisfaction.

Enable students to access the support they need from instructors and peers how, where, and when they need it.

Get the most out of assessments by providing personalized feedback right in the LMS.

Create learning experiences as unique as your learners.

I really love the Intelligent Agent and Virtual Classroom tools within Brightspace. As an online instructor, these tools allow me to create a face-to-face experience for my students, which is vital for student success. The students have expressed surprise at how engaging and easy these tools are. Many have made comments that the online experience was less intimidating and more rewarding overall. Thank you D2L for providing such user friendly and interactive options for teachers and learners!
