Summary

In this article we will cover how to export your Coursensu learning designs and course content into your D2L Brightspace LMS. This is very handy when wanting to transfer reviewed and approved learning content to the LMS, to create a 'course container' or 'shell' for stakeholders or for content migration between platforms. However you want to move your design content to the LMS our export tool will help you prepare it quickly and easily.

This approach requires a connection with your Brightspace LMS (see related articles) and the permissions in your Brightspace account to create, or modify, courses (sometimes called org units in Brightspace).

The export format can create the following course content: 

• Sections
• Pages (and their content)
• Files (such as images and embedded videos)
• Quiz containers
• Discussion forums
• Assignments / Dropboxes

Note: This feature requires a Coursensu Team plan.
