Tired of staring at your course shell, wondering where to start or how to refresh what you already have? Let AI give you a boost.
Join us for a hands-on end-of-semester workshop where you’ll explore D2L Lumi, the built-in AI tool designed to work directly with your own course content. No prompts to master, no external tools, just practical support inside Brightspace.
In this interactive session, you’ll see how Lumi can help you:
- Instantly generate module summaries from your existing materials
- Create discussion prompts, assignments, and quiz questions in seconds
- Turn your content into engaging, student-ready learning activities
- Save time while maintaining your academic voice and expertise
We’ll also preview the upcoming D2L Brightspace New Content Experience, which will replace the classic version. We expect this migration to happen in early 2027. You’ll get a first look at how it makes it easier to:
- Build accessible, well-structured content
- Align materials with learning outcomes
- Seamlessly integrate AI tools like Lumi
- Create a more intuitive and modern learning experience for students
Bring your own course materials and leave with ideas (and content!) you can use right away.
Whether you’re curious about AI, looking to save time, or preparing for the upcoming transition, this session will give you practical tools to enhance your courses without adding to your workload.
We look forward to seeing you at our workshop!
