Top 9 Reasons Why Your Seminary Should Use Brightspace by D2L
1. Teach how you want
The Brightspace platform supports a variety of teaching and learning modalities. Now you can offer your students online, hybrid or even self-paced programs to accommodate unique learning styles.
2. Easily reflect and continue on the path of learning
With ePortfolio, students can reflect on their learning throughout their time at your seminary and maintain access even after they graduate, providing the long-term support they’ll need in practice.
3. Effortlessly create courses
Instructors can quickly and easily drag and drop their content into the LMS, helping them build a course more easily. No more worrying about organizing content and files or needing a PhD in technology. Our easy-to-use solution can give your instructors more time in their day to focus on their students.


4. Keep an eye on student engagement
Our Class Progress tool allows faculty to easily monitor student performance and gain insight into which students might be struggling. Brightspace equips your instructors with all the information they need in order to help students in need.
5. Measure student success with ease
Your learning outcomes can be created and measured easily in Brightspace, allowing your instructors to provide any needed guidance to make sure they’re supporting student success.
6. Simplify grading
Instructors can annotate papers directly in Brightspace, and even grade papers offline using our grading app.

7. Learn anywhere, anytime
All students can access content on any device, ensuring a consistent experience for everyone so they can stay connected anywhere — both inside and outside the community.
8. Trust in a reliable partner
At D2L, we value each and every one of our partnerships. Our dedicated implementation team will work closely with you and your instructors to serve and support your seminary’s unique needs during setup and implementation.
9. Future-proof your institution
Keep up with the changing needs of your students while still supporting your traditional learners. D2L’s responsive design and microservices architecture allow us to keep pace with your students’ changing needs and continually make improvements in a way that’s still intuitive for every kind of learner.

It was important for us to have a learning platform that would be the best possible fit for our institution. We know that D2L has features that were lacking in our previous platform, it integrates with our existing Student Information System, and that is both powerful and easy to use. For us, there was no question that it was D2L.
