Navigating GivePulse for your Courses

1. Select the Log in link in the top right corner

2. From the next screen, select the “Log in via PCC” which will redirect you to sign in to your MyPCC account

Students can also connect their accounts to facebook or other email accounts. Please encourage students to login using this method in order for them to navigate the platform in our ecosystem. 

Anyone with MyPCC access can “claim” their GivePulse account. When students are enrolled in a class tagged as CBL, an account automatically gets created for them. Even if a student doesn’t ever use the platform, we still have data about what cbl course they’ve taken and you as an instructor can report the individual student’s course impact.

The "My Activity" tab allows you to navigate quickly to a list of your:

• Groups

• Classes

• Impacts

• Registrations

• Donations

• Purchases

• Surveys/applications

• Reviews (insights about your activity)

Using the My Activity dropdown menu, navigate to the Classes Dashboard to find your courses.

1. In the top right corner, click “My Activity”,

2. From that drop down menu, click “Classes”

3. Find the course and click on the arrow next to “Admin.” Select “Manage” and this will take you to the course’s dashboard.

All courses you are teaching with a CBL component will be listed. If you do not see your course, please email the CBL Program Coordinator the CRN and they can add it.

Find the course and click on the arrow next to “Admin.” Select “Manage” and this will take you to the course’s dashboard.

The dashboard navigation menu will be on the left side of your screen. 

Again, GivePulse is a very robust platform and there are a lot of functionalities listed, but these are the basic ones you will most likely use:

• Manage Users - To view your course roster with total impacts and hours

• Manage Impacts - View, filter, and sort all the individual impacts created by students and shared with your course

• Manage Surveys - Review CBL Learning Agreements 

In the Manage User screen, select "Configure layout" and check the following fields to view:

• Total Impacts

• Total Verified Hours

• Quick Note

• Tags

You can use the search boxes above each column to filter your view to students who are participating in the CBL project/assignment.
