LEARN
LEARN is the University's learning management system (LMS) – it is powered by D2L, also called BrightSpace. LEARN supports announcements, email, chat, discussions, content creation, video notes, dropboxes, gradebook, quizzes, rubrics, and groups. Many other Edtech tools integrate with LEARN via various API's. As this is a centrally supported tool, see the EdTech hub for more information and resources.
