What is ANGEL?

ANGEL is a tool for creating online course components, similar to BlackBoard or WebCT. Created by educators at ANGEL Learning, ANGEL is an acronym which stands for "A New Global Environment for Learning".

SLU faculty report the ANGEL system to be easy to use, offering a great deal of flexibility in building course components. Using ANGEL, faculty may easily post syllabi, schedules, announcements, quizzes, surveys, provide discussion forums -- and now, with version 7.2, also wikis and blogs! Most any digital file format can be uploaded to ANGEL. Instructors also have the ability to create electronic assignment drop boxes, create groups and collaborative group workspace, manage an online gradebook, and choose from a variety of features which help track student progress within the course.
