Overall Satisfaction with Brightspace
Brightspace is a learning management system used by the college in all aspects of managing student learning, student achievement, student communication and teacher training.
- Creating and organizing assignments
- Able to upload files of all types
- Manage calendar
- Student reminders of work due via built in calendar
- Editing assignments: too many steps, can be more streamlined
- Courses are presented the same for instructors and learners. Instructors have to use 'student view' to see course from learners' point of view. Must click a button to deactivate
- Using the built in course management system to create modules can be challenging
- Students and instructors can get confused with the interface. There might be a slight learning curve
- Not everything is intuitive. Therefore some instructors are slow to adopt.
- Grading features may have a slight learning curve for instructors new to LMS.
This is the only other LMS I've used other than Schoology. I used Blackboard many years ago.
