After reviewing different programs to replace MSU’s current online learning management system, or LMS, MSU announced Tuesday it will be switching to the Desire2Learn, or D2L, system beginning at the end of the fall 2012 semester.
D2L was chosen by the LMS Futures Committee, consisting of delegates from Libraries and IT Services, academic colleges along with professors and students on campus.
Libraries and IT Services and the LMS Futures Committee looked at Blackboard as another option to replace ANGEL, but chose D2L and is now discussing a multi-year license agreement.
Training and use of the D2L system will start in the late fall, but ANGEL will be available until spring 2015.
