4.2. Getting Started Widget
Getting Started Widget
The Getting Started Widget is a
customization in Brightspace designed to help your instructor communicate important information the first time you log into the course. The widget will open automatically to the first page. Choosing Next prompts the next file to load. Scrolling may be necessary for longer pages.
Continue to read the pages and choose Next until the last file is presented. The last file offers the option to Dismiss the widget. Choosing Dismiss will stop the initiation of the widget at the login to the course.
You are only asked to view the content once, but you can always see the content again even if Dismiss was selected previously. Choose Getting Started to run the widget. (This is the same information found in the Getting Started content module if you prefer to navigate the table of contents.)
