Taking notes has so many benefits for learning, and through May 31, 2025, Blue Ridge Community College students have free access to Glean, a tool designed to improve grades, boost confidence, and reduce stress. To sign up, students can visit app.glean.co/sign-in, select “Sign in with SSO” and enter their Blue Ridge email address and password.
With Glean, students can record and transcribe lecture notes for easy reference, enhance them by adding images, slides, and visuals to stay organized, and summarize key points with AI-generated outlines to streamline studying. The built-in quiz feature also reinforces learning.
Glean offers advanced features to elevate the learning experience. QuizMe generates multiple-choice questions from the student’s recorded content, helping identify strengths and areas for improvement. AI Outlines automatically create an event outline from transcripts, saving time searching for key information. The Focus Timer helps students stay on track during revision by setting a timer for distraction-free studying. Quick tutorials on using QuizMe, AI Outlines, and the Focus Timer are available on the Skills Portal.
To further support students, Glean provides additional resources. The Glean Skills Portal offers short videos that break down each feature, while the Live Tutorial Registration Page allows students to sign up for a live webinar that walks users through Glean and all its capabilities. The Student Resources Page provides free materials like a study planner, budget planners, self-care trackers, and more to help students stay organized and balanced throughout the academic journey.
