Brightspace – Automating your Course with Intelligent Agents in Brightspace (EdTech Event)

Adding automation to your course through the use of Intelligent Agents is one way to boost interaction with your learners without requiring more work and effort. Intelligent Agents are customizable messages automatically emailed to your students when they fulfill a particular task. Some examples include: students not logging in for extended periods of time, email reminders about upcoming and/or missed deadlines, students who have viewed (or not viewed) specific modules or topics, or providing immediate feedback after the completion of a quiz. Come and find out how to set up Intelligent Agents in your course. By the end of this workshop, you should be able to:

• Explain what Intelligent Agents are and how they work
• Describe when to use Intelligent Agents
• Create, test, edit, and modify Intelligent Agents in Brightspace
• Personalize Intelligent Agents using replacement strings
• Review past Intelligent Agent activities
