Brightspace: Student Guides
The Business eLearning team are developing a series of Brightspace Student Guides, which you can finds on this page. Below are a series of learning resources, which aim to give you an understanding of the main features of Brightspace Virtual Learning Environment (VLE). For a quick overview of the new platform, click here
Which of my modules are on Brightspace?
Some or all of your modules will be appearing on Brightspace, the new VLE at UCD. To see which of your modules are now running on Brightspace, check your module listing in SISWeb (Uview). Here you will see the Brightspace logo appear beside the modules that are no longer running on Blackboard or Moodle and are now on Brightspace. You can access UView through the Registration, Fees & Assessment menu in SISWeb.
