Brightspace

Brightspace is a virtual learning environment and course management system designed to fully support online courses and to enhance face to face courses through a host of tools such as discussion boards and online quizzes and the sharing of documents, videos, or other interactive content. Brightspace also provides integrations with many of the online course content platforms and resources instructors may wish to use in their classes. Brightspace allows students to submit assignments online and to view their grades. With the Mobile Learn app, students can participate in classroom activities from their mobile devices.  

All students and faculty have Brightspace accounts and can logon with their CCC username and password at Brightspace.ccc.edu or through My.CCC.edu.

All courses taught at CCC automatically have a corresponding Brightspace course and all students and the instructor are automatically enrolled.
