The Class Progress tool provides a dashboard view of all student activity in a course. Students can view their own progress while faculty can view that of any student. Track what content, activities, and assessments have been completed, what remains to be done, and recent log in activity.

  • Note that information in the Class Progress tool may not reflect all student effort, such as work done in the physical classroom, in the community, on 3rd party platforms, or on materials that were downloaded or accessed outside of D2L Brightspace. In short, the Class Progress tool contributes to an instructor's holistic understanding of student progress in a course; however, due to its limitations it should not be used as a sole or definitive record of student activity.

  • Note: use the Class Progress tool in context of the holistic course experience, including in-person course activities, emails and other direct communication with faculty. The course progress tool is not a substitute for the syllabus and schedule provided by the instructor and may not reflect all course activity that will be expected or completed. For example, faculty may add content or alter visibility of quizzes during the semester. When in doubt, consult the course syllabus or ask the instructor.
