D2L Brightspace

D2L Brightspace is SCC’s learning management system used to access online, synchronous, flex, and hybrid courses. D2L Brightspace provides students access to course syllabi, online readings, multimedia, links to related Internet sites, calendars and online tests and grades. Students can interact with instructors through e-mail, MS Teams, the Virtual Classroom, and online discussions. SCCOnline, our distance learning office, administers and supports D2L.

All students have access to the Online Learning Tutorial course to help familiarize them with D2L Brightspace tools and strategies for success in online courses. SCCOnline provides technical support, orientation and training for students and faculty who use D2L Brightspace.

HOW TO LOG INTO D2L BRIGHTSPACE:

  1. Go to the SCC website at https://www.sccsc.edu
  2. Click on MySCC Portal.
  3. Click Log into MySCC Portal.
  4. Enter your SCC username (WebID) and password.
  5. Click on the D2L Brightspace link under Campus Applications.
  6. When the D2L homepage appears, select your course from the My Courses area.
  7. Essential course information such as the syllabus, instructor addendum, grades, and course policies can be accessed by clicking Content and selecting the Start Here module from the table of contents.

Online courses require access to a Windows or Macintosh computer and a reliable high- speed Internet connection. D2L Brightspace also supports access on smartphones, tablets, and Chromebooks, but there may be incompatibilities with some course content, assignments, and online testing systems. Students should not take online tests using a smartphone due to the small screen size.

Some tests given through D2L Brightspace may be proctored. The instructor will notify students whether these will be taken in the SCC Testing Center or through the Honorlock online proctoring system. Honorlock allows students to take proctored exams from home in a quiet place, free of distractions, similar to the Testing Center. Students are recorded while taking an Honorlock test.  A webcam and microphone are required.

The Help menu provides easy access to support for D2L Brightspace and other technologies used for online learning. The SCCOnline website (https://www.sccsc.edu/academics/scconline/index.php) provides links to information about online courses, technical requirements, and technical support. You may also contact SCCOnline at (864) 592-4961, (888) 364-9080 (toll free), or email scconline@sccsc.edu.
