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.
These videos are based on our聽聽held with the Institute for the Advancement of Higher Education (AdvancED). Whether you can鈥檛 make it to one of our workshops, or just need a refresher course, we鈥檝e made as many resources as possible available online, and will continue adding more.
