Brightspace (D2L) Integration

Incorporate Measure Results Directly from D2L Brightspace
Assessment Leads now have the option to incorporate rubric assessment results directly from D2L Brightspace into measure results in Watermark P. The results pulled will be reflected in the plan’s annual reports.

Similar to the Canvas integration, the Planning & Self-Study system administrator or administrator must first activate the integration to establish the connection with your institution's instance of D2L. Please note that you will need access to specific organizations in D2L to activate this integration.
 
  1. In Planning & Self-Study, go to Admin > Integrations > Other Integrations. Click “Connect to D2L Brightspace.mceclip0.png
Click on ‘CONNECT TO D2L BRIGHTSPACE’

Follow the steps as indicated to establish the connection. If you do not have administrative access to Client ID, please reach out to someone who does for assistance.

Align Rubric Results from D2L Brightspace

Once the integration is activated, assessment leads can pull assessment results from D2L Brightspace into measures in Planning & Self-Study using their own accounts. To do this, an assessment lead will follow these steps:
  1. Either create a new measure or add results to an existing one. Create a new measure and select “Align Rubric”.

  3. Select D2L Brightspace as the source from which to pull measure results. The assessment lead will then authenticate with their D2L credentials to authorize the system to access the rubric results data they have access to in D2L Brightspace.mceclip6.pngSource options for aligning rubric results from another system.

  4. Select the organization and artifact where the rubric has been used to pull relevant assessment results. The user will be able to view the organization(s) that they are part of, and view assignments and discussion topics as artifacts.
