Faculty Options for Mobile Support

This article is for faculty members looking for information on the mobile options available to them.

Instructors are encouraged to use the new Blackboard Instructor app when accessing their HuskyCT courses on the go.  Blackboard introduced the Instructor app in Summer 2017 and more features are expected to be released as the product matures.

Bb Grader is also an option for instructors.  The Bb Grader app is designed specifically for viewing and grading student assignments. It does not include the same features as the Blackboard Instructor app. 

This article will talk about both options.
