2.2. Brightspace (formerly D2L)

Brightspace (formerly D2L Desire 2 Learn) is the university’s selected Learning Management System (LMS). Simply put, Brightspace is the hub of your class (whether it is an in-person or asynchronous online class). It is a course site that houses announcements, calendars, course documents (syllabus, worksheets, class notes…), but also links out to online homework platforms and other third-party tools that we use in our classes.

The College of Science requires that all courses housed under CoS use Brightspace, specifically to:

  • Post the syllabus/course policies
  • Post important due dates in the calendar
  • Keep grades updated and calculated so a student can where they stand at any time.
