CourseSmart and Desire2Learn partnership to enhance access to digital educational resources -

Digital course materials supplier CourseSmart LLC, US, has partnered with Desire2Learn Incorporated, (Desire2Learn), a provider of enterprise teaching and learning platforms, to provide an end-to-end integration that facilitates an efficient, one-stop process for students and faculty to access digital course materials. Students and faculty will have single sign–on access to CourseSmart's catalogue of over 20,000 eTextbooks and other digital course materials using the new CourseSmart integration within the Desire2Learn learning management system.

The CourseSmart integration within the Desire2Learn platform will enhance students' studies by utilising CourseSmart's eTextbook features including search, copy and paste, highlight, annotate, share and print. The single sign-on functionality enables students and instructors to access CourseSmart's digital catalogue via the Desire2Learn platform without having to remember a separate set of credentials for CourseSmart access.

The integration also provides instructors with free access to evaluate core higher education eTextbooks and eResources in use today from publishers who supply 90 percent of the market, and to select and use these course materials effortlessly in their Desire2Learn courses.

Without leaving the Desire2Learn course, instructors can easily create links to a required reading assignment, homework problems or other activities that reside in their digital course materials, and seamlessly share that information with their students.
