Instructor Tutorials

There are a number of communication tools in Brightspace that enable dialogue between instructor and students, as well as collaboration and engagement between students in a class or group.
Discussions, chats, and groups provide ways for students to engage with each other. Notifications, email and announcements provide venues for the instructor to share timely information with the class or individual students.
