Did You Know... we have BOLT tutorials for you?

The BOLT Support team does more than answer questions about and resolve issues in BOLT. We also work with our supervisors to provide helpful support documentation and video tutorials on BOLT and its integrated tools.

BOLT Student Support page

Last year we helped update the Student Support pages so that you had the most up-to-date and accurate help documentation for BOLT possible. This year we are working on adding new docs and videos on some of the new features that have come to BOLT- Turnitin Feedback Studio, Audio and Video Note, and Virtual Classroom.

Do you need to know how to submit an assignment in BOLT? Set your notifications? What about how to join an online room for a class meeting?

If you want to know how to do things in BOLT, just go to our Student Support page at https://www.bloomu.edu/imdc-bolt-student

We also have a YouTube channel with video tutorials for students and instructors! You can access the videos on the Student Support pages, but subscribing to our channel means you will see our new videos as soon as we release them!

Language Improvements On the Way in May

Language changes to update and improve user experience in BOLT are coming our way May 20, 2016.

If you are taking courses at the beginning of the Summer (May 16), old terms will be present until the end of the first week of classes. The changes will occur on May 20, 2016.

After in-depth testing and analysis, Brightspace identified key terminology to update and improve the user experience within BOLT. Updates will be display only; the tools will continue to function exactly the same as they do now.

Based on the results of the testing, the terms changing in BOLT for students are:

• News to Announcements
• Dropbox to Assignments

Again, please note these are language term changes and that functionality will remain the same. 

For more information on the changes and for ways we plan to support you, follow the jump cut...

Have you used ePortfolio?

ePortfolio is a tool that allows you to aggregate, organize, and share your learning artifacts from your courses at Bloomsburg University.


If your instructor wants to use ePortfolio, or you need to create a presentation to display your work, you will find our new documentation and tutorials on using ePortfolio useful.


You can find a student guide, step by step documentation, and video tutorials for ePortfolio at our Student Support Page http://departments.bloomu.edu/imdc/boltstudentsupport.html
