Brightspace
NYU Brightspace is the University's learning management system. All faculty have access to set up course sites, view course rosters ("Classlists"), post announcements to their students, upload and organize course content, and manage assignments within Brightspace.
Step-by-step guides and trainings for Brightspace users are available at this website. Stern's Learning Science Lab also created a guide to getting started with the LMS, and they offer Brightspace workshops and office hours consultations that you can sign up for here.
Albert
Albert is NYU's student information system. As an instructor, you will have a "Faculty/Advisor" tab in Albert through which you can access your course information, class rosters, grading rosters, and more. For instructions on how to use the different features of Albert, including how to post grades, visit the Albert Help website.
Zoom
NYU Zoom is a web, video, and audio conferencing service that can be used for online classes and meetings. Use it for online teaching, training, remote support, audio calls, and meetings.
