Brightspace Content is Getting Upgraded
Beginning with the Fall 2027 semester, Brightspace courses will default to the New Content Experience. Additionally, Instructors now have the ability to enable or disable the New Content Experience in their own courses ahead of the change in Fall 2027. For more information about this transition, see our New Content Experience Transition page.
The Insert Stuff link is available anywhere in the course where the text entry box is available. This includes content item descriptions, discussions, syllabus, assignments, tests.
