Welcome to the Possibilities

Online tools can make your classroom management much easier, and they can help motivated students achieve more success in your courses.

Consider some of the following benefits of using D2L and other instructional management tools.
 

• Automatic grading of tests and homework.
• Reducing cheating; quiz questions can be randomized so that every students gets them in a different order (or even, each students gets a different set of questions).
• Never losing homework assignments and other papers; even when you return the assignment - you keep an electronic copy.
• Tracking of late work; student work is date and time-stamped.
• Grading and feedback are available to students 24x7.
• Progress Reports automatically generating in the grades section.
• Reducing email traffic.
• Reducing Reprographics use; handouts can be posted and read online, and there are no more requests for extra copies when originals are lost.
• Notifying students of job, intern, and workshop opportunities.
• Adding videos and multimedia easily to your courses.
• Linking to resource materials and websites which are easily accessible to students.
• Determining contributions in group projects; which students contributed which ideas and what content are much easier to determine.
