Brightspace is a Learning Management System that is organized so that students and faculty/instructors can access materials and interact online in a structured space available to only members of that class. Brightspace is a tool used by campuses to foster learning outside the classroom or through distance education.
Brightspace can be used to share files, post grades, engage in discussion boards, share links, resources, post
announcements, emails, monitor students' progress, take tests, submit assignments, and interact with
classmates.
Brightspace apps are available from your app stores.
