About Blackboard Mobile Learn (Beta)

Blackboard Mobile Learn is a free mobile application that brings teaching and learning to mobile devices and gives USC students and instructors access to their Blackboard course information directly from their smartphones and tablets. With applications designed specifically for Android devices, BlackBerry smartphone devices, HP webOS devices, as well as for Apple’s iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad, students can check grades and assignments, view documents, create threaded discussion posts, comment on blogs and journals, view documents, view course rosters, and more.

Because this is a beta release, students and instructors should expect that some features may not look or work the same on all devices and there may be intermittent performance issues.

Students, instructors, and staff can download the app for free through their devices’ app store.
