D2L Brightspace Guide 

Welcome to our D2L Brightspace Guide for Students!

You will use D2L Brightspace to access course material, reading lists, discussions, quizzes and assignments. You will complete assignments, discussions and quizzes, and then submit them to your instructor for evaluation.

To communicate with your instructor or other students, you can use an Email tool, or post messages in online discussions.
