Making Your Online Learner Experience Comparable to Your In-Person Learning with Brightspace

There is a big difference between remote instruction and high-quality online learning. The journey to online learning is often approached in phases – some start by replicating the classroom experience, evolving to make sure that it’s equitable and effective, and then continuing to grow to make it a truly impactful learning experience online. The Brightspace platform is designed to help you provide the highest quality online learning in a scalable and engaging way. With robust options for feedback, tools to inspire, engage, and enhance collaboration, there has never been a better time to invest in your online learning experience.

Join us for this brief demonstration of tools in D2L’s Brightspace platform. We will highlight how to:

• Use social-inspired activity feeds to foster communication and collaboration between students and the instructor.
• Use discussions to foster community with the ability for students to post video introductions and rate messages so peers can call out key contributions.
• Leverage virtual classroom sessions to share desktops, webcams, chat to ask and answer questions, and annotate on whiteboards.
• Create Video Presentation Activities (Video Assignments), an asynchronous activity consisting of students submitting presentation videos. Once submitted, students can receive feedback, coaching, peer evaluation, and grades.
