Desire2Learn (D2L) name change to D2L Brightspace
Starting May 30, 2015, our campus will transition from using the name “Desire2Learn” or “D2L” for our learning management system to a new name — “D2L Brightspace.”
Why? In 2014 D2L Corporation announced naming changes to their corporate identity and the learning environment we use for many of our courses.
How will this change affect you?
You may see this new name used on campus even before the official name change. This also includes instructional materials for your Summer 2015 courses. The new Brightspace logo will be used in some places. You will use a new D2L Brightspace login page with the new logo beginning on May 30th.
You will receive reminders of this change as we get closer to the transition date on May 30th. Please contact the IT Helpdesk at support@mnstate.edu or 218-477-2603 if you have questions regarding this name change.
