Coming Soon to BOLT: Audio Note 2.0 and Video Note

Desire2Learn has improved the Audio tool and removed its dependency on Flash. Instructors will now be able to add audio without using Flash or encountering any dialogs requiring them to allow Flash to access their microphone. The new improved audio tool will be available in BOLT in time for the 2016 Fall semester.


Also, a new tool, Video Note, will be available for 2016 Fall. Video Note, also not dependent on Flash, allows instructors to record short video clips and attach them to items in their courses, or as feedback for student submissions. Instructors will be able to easily record short video clips and insert them into course items in BOLT.
