The Discussion Board in Brightspace is used to build peer-to-peer discussion assignments. Discussions may not be used in unfacilitated rolling-enrollment courses.
Plus courses include a progress check after each unit. The Progress Check should include all graded assessments up to the Progress Check. Ex. Progress Check Unit 2 includes all graded assessments from Getting Started, Unit 1, and Unit 2.
The grade book must be transparent and easy for students to understand while also actively tracking the work a student is doing throughout the class. Utilize the most up to date SLS gradebook settings, which can be found in this entry.
SLS Plus Courses hosted in Brightspace should be created using the MSTR Course Template. The Brightspace MSTR course template has been certified through Quality Matters Template Review.
Michigan Virtual courses and lessons should be created with the CourseArc Master Template. When assigned to a course development project, your project manager will create and set up the CourseArc course for you.
Assessment directions for Brightspace quizzes/tests for SLS Plus courses must include the title, points, objectives, and instructions in the proper Michigan Virtual branded formatting.
