How to Use Alternative Learning Methods in Brightspace

May 14th, 2020 @ 1:00pm CST

To improve student engagement, one of the most effective course design decisions you can make is to offer materials and assignments that enable multiple means of engagement. Including the same materials in different formats helps engage students that have different learning styles, reinforces important concepts, and ensures that users with physical disabilities can better access content.

Join D2L for this brief demonstration of the tools and accessibility features in D2L’s Brightspace platform. They'll highlight how they can benefit instructors and students in their day-to-day learning activities.

You’ll discover how to:

  • Utilize release conditions to determine your course style (CBE, Flip Classrooms)
  • Support non-traditional learners
  • Engage different learning styles with pedagogical approaches
