This means students are building beautiful portfolios of their work without even realizing it. bulb can be used in any subject, creating a tangible demonstration of personalized, integrated learning, relevant to wherever a student’s path takes them in life.
 
“bulb has changed my students’ educational experience, as they can now use this site as evidence of an online portfolio when they apply to universities in their future,” said Mandy Bartell from the Nanjing Foreign Language School in China. “bulb is easy to navigate and, best of all, it is set up for portfolios when so many sites are set up for blogs and websites.”
