The New D2L Coming in May
New features based on feedback
Staff in the Center for Online Learning & Innovation (COLI) are hard at work crafting a new set of D2L tutorial videos. This is in part because D2L is getting a new interface in mid-May, in between the spring and summer semesters, but also because D2L has gradually added new, minor features over the past several years. The new videos are crafted based on feedback we’ve received from faculty.
Right now COLI has more than a dozen new videos and more on the way. Periodically check back on our wiki page to see these as they appear.
