Daylight by D2L (Desire2Learn)
Daylight, commonly known as just “D2L” is the learning management system used at Colorado Northwestern Community College. The Daylight Experience is the new look and feel for D2L that adapts responsively to different screen sizes (on different devices). Daylight offers a much cleaner look and easy to use interface for all users. In introducing the new design, D2L hopes to make its learning environment:
- Visually appealing to learners and instructors
- Less cluttered and simpler to navigate
- Mobile friendly and fully accessible to all users
Minimum Requirements
Not just online, but all courses utilize a D2L course shell that is required, at a minimum, to include a course syllabus and maintain an active gradebook. The gradebook is required for record-keeping and data mining purposes for retention.
