LoudCloud Digital Courseware

Developed by Barnes & Noble Education (BNED), the platform combines a learning management system with publisher-agnostic digital courseware, enabling institutions to deliver online and blended courses through a single interface. It supports the integration of textbooks, multimedia resources, interactive assessments, and adaptive learning content from multiple publishers, and provides tools for instructors to assemble customised course materials, manage assignments, and monitor student progress.

The platform includes analytics and reporting features that track student engagement, performance, and learning outcomes at both individual and cohort levels. It offers integration with institutional student information systems and other learning management systems through standards such as LTI (Learning Tools Interoperability), allowing single sign-on and grade passback.

LoudCloud is typically used by colleges, universities, and other post-secondary education providers to support distance learning programmes, on-campus courses with digital components, and competency-based education models.
