About Brightspace

All of our courses reside online in Brightspace by D2L (Desire2Learn).  Your content will always be available and accessible on devices with internet access. Try to get in the habit of logging into your course daily as teachers record attendance according to your course activity. If you are not active 5 days a week, you could be withdrawn.

​Please also review the Ottawa Catholic School Board's policy on Computer and Internet Use.

Take your time and read through the helpful content provided in the next few pages.

HARDWARE/SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS

  • It is highly recommended that you use a desktop or laptop computer (PC or Mac) for your courses.  
  • Computers and Netbooks are available for use in classrooms or the Learning Commons. Because of COVID-19, students are required to clean the computers that they access.  
  • While you are able to access many components of your course on a tablet or phone, some tools may be difficult to access on them. If using a mobile device, we recommend using the Desktop version rather than the app in order to access all features.
  • You will definitely need reliable internet access!
