Pros and cons

Tracking progress with respect to the assignments graded gives a good gist of the progress made in the course.

Tanvi T.

It was easy to use, accessible, reliable, and contains excellent tools we need to provide quality online, hybrid and face-to-face courses.

As a student on this platform, I have found that it has some irritating quirks.

Anonymity request

The interface between students and teachers is minimal - email, time-delayed chat, and forums make for a dull experience. You must cut and paste your rubric into the grading page.

Adjunct Instrutor/Course Creator

However, the faculty often complained about the difficulty they had with the interface. The system wasn't very intuitive on their end.
