Message from D2L:
As our Product Design team works to craft workflows to increase flexibility in options for assessing student work, we will be conducting a series of research projects.
D2L’s initial focus is on single marker and multi-marker workflows, research starting this month will focus on better understanding how these workflows are currently managed and challenges faced with that, as well as expectations for how these would be set up in Brightspace.
Later research will include getting feedback directly on proposed workflow designs for single marker and multi-marker, and later will focus on additional assessment use cases.
We would like to invite faculty, lecturers, programme support staff, and anyone else who is directly involved in assessing student work to participate in our research sessions.
To get involved, you can complete the sign-up form: D2L.com/UXResearch
We will ask for contact information and a few details about you work. Then we’ll contact them periodically to volunteer to participate in a particular study. Sessions are usually an hour long, and we offer a reward for your participation as a token of our appreciation. Currently, our sessions are run in English by a team in North America; we do our best to accommodate time changes.
We know this work is important to your institution and we are keen to include perspectives from your faculty in our research.
