Welcome back to a new semester. D2L has made some changes to the names of tools and added a My Media tool, as well as new features for the Grades, Groups, Quizzes and Discussions tools.
Tool name changes:
Former Name | Updated Name |
Dropbox | Assignments |
News | Announcements |
Pager | Instant Messages |
Edit Course | Course Admin |
In Content, New | Upload/Create |
In Content, Add Existing Activities | Existing Activities |
If you refer to any of the tools within your course materials, you will need to update the language.
For example, if you have instructions in your course outline for students to submit assignments to “Dropbox,” you will need to edit it to read “Assignments tool.”
