Brightspace and Digitally Enabled Learning
At the University of Suffolk, Brightspace is the heart of our learning, teaching and assessment for our students and our staff. Effective and intentional use of Brightspace ensures that our students can access high quality learning materials wherever they are, and continue to work collaboratively, or complete formative and summative assessment. Brightspace is also the home of the University's Student Information Hub and the University's CPD Hub for staff.
As well as Brightspace, our digitally enabled learning is makes use of tools and classroom technologies such as Panopto, for learning session capture,
The information in these pages will help you to develop your own skills and knowledge in the effective use of each of these technologies and to access specialist training and support from our Educational Development and Learning Design Team.
