Great LMS for learning
Feature packed LMS.
A few tools for copy material between lessons are lacking.
Brightspace and D2L are two very easy to use platforms that provide different helpful functions.
This platform is user-friendly and has a simple but effective interface. I have not encountered any problems so far.
Going back to the past pages takes a lot of clicks, it's not a big problem, but it would be great if there's a way to jump pages quickly.
I think that the only advantage I could list is that it works best with teachers and content creators because it does a great job at building educational materials. Other than that, I can't think of any.
Slow, not user-friendly, not intuitive, not really compatible with mobile devices. Expensive, crowded with useless features, and so much more. Their multilanguage support is also a nightmare, especially if you're not that well-versed in English.
Taking some higher-level courses online which are essential for college success/admissions has been possible and due to being a busy learner, I couldn’t fit into my senior year schedule.
Taking these lessons outside of school is possible, the ability to remain on track as every lesson comes with a “90 Day Plan” in the course contents, I can operate at my personal pace, and for a busy learner as myself, it has very helpful adaptability of completing the online course at my own speed.
Every now and then a tiny box that pops up warning the user that they’ll be logged out and required to login again after the session exceeds 30 minutes of inactivity when I’m working on a lesson.
