Blackboard Inc. (Nasdaq: BBBB) today announced new innovation and expanded access to its mobile learning application, Blackboard Mobile™ Learn, with an updated release that brings new features and capabilities to one of the industry's most widely adopted mobile apps, now in use at more than 500 institutions worldwide.
Released just six months after the initial launch, Blackboard Mobile Learn 2.0 enables students and faculty for the first time to create and upload content to their courses – including videos, photos and other non-media files – rather than just consuming content. The release also offers a redesigned user interface to support threaded discussions and the ability for students to mark courses as "favorites" so they can more easily manage, search and filter the courses they access most frequently.
Developed by Blackboard's dedicated mobile team, Blackboard Mobile Learn brings two-way teaching and learning to mobile devices and gives students full access to their course information directly from their smartphones. With elegant, intuitive applications designed specifically for each mobile platform, students can check grades and assignments, view documents, create threaded discussion posts and comment on blogs and journals, upload content and view documents, view course rosters and more. Instructors can also post announcements.
