Blackboard Mobile Learn by Blackboard Inc. gives you a way to continue and keep up with your education classes no matter where you are.

With this app you're able to access your course on WiFi and cellular so no matter where you are you can keep up with your studies.

Your learning institution must license Blackboard Mobile Learn in order for you to use it for free. If the school doesn't, you can buy the one year subscription for $1.99 or the lifelong subscription for $5.99.

Some of the handy features you'll get with this app include the ability to attach your files/assignments from Dropbox, check your grades, take part and post to any discussions happening, view your assignments, read any announcements posted, and make comments on journals and blogs.

If tests have been made mobile friendly, you can also take them through this app.

Other things you can do with this app are view PDF files, play MOV, and play MP4 files.

When you launch the app the first time you'll need to enter your school's name, then use your existing Blackboard password and username.

Blackboard Mobile Learn was updated on Jan. 25, 2013 and has 224 customer ratings with an average rating of two out of five stars.

The idea behind this app is great: it can make the difference between you continuing on with your education or not being able to. As long as your institution provides this feature it really is a great convenience and extremely user friendly.
