Case Study: York Technical College creates more engaging digital courses with D2L Brightspace

York Technical College empowers faculty to create fun, truly interactive digital courses and resources that drive student success

York Technical College wanted to redesign its online courses and digital resources to create more engaging, interactive learning experiences while also helping faculty gain confidence with online teaching tools. Working with D2L Brightspace, the college launched an initiative through its Institute for Learning Excellence to support faculty in building stronger digital courses and more effective online learning content.

D2L Brightspace helped York Technical College create asynchronous faculty training courses covering tools like D2L HTML templates, Intelligent Agents, and Brightspace Creator+. The result was faster content creation, reduced workload for faculty and the Institute for Learning Excellence, and a more consistent, engaging learning experience across courses, with faculty better equipped to design interactive resources and support student success.
