Oh, the places you’ll go (with Brightspace)!

Congratulations!

Today is your day.

You’re off to Great Places!

You’re off and away!

Here are some Brightspace tools you can use.

Exploit them in whatever way that you choose.

Tell, test, talk, even add extra links.

Offer grades, too.

It’s not as hard as you think.

To engage, involve students in your passion, too,

Is the promise that you and Brightspace can do.

Discussions to lead or have on their own.

Access they’ll have wherever they roam.

Allow self-expression. Let students have their own say.

Guide lots of webquests to Search, search away.

Create tests and quizzes that are scored on that day.

Accept lots of papers the TurnItIn way.

In Groups or in pairs the learning is theirs.

You’ll guide them. You’ll teach them, and show them the way.

You’re off to Great Places! You’re off and away!

You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes.

You can use Brightspace however you choose.

Yes, You!

No matter what route you choose or what you might use

With you and these tools, you have nothing to lose.

If students have problems and you know that they will.

CCC supports Brightspace. Really, we do.

There’s online help, me, but most notably YOU.

And when things start to happen, don’t worry. Don’t Stew.

Just go right along. You’ll start happening too.
