BU London Library Resources: Student's Blackboard

Blackboard at BU London

Similar to many universities, here at BU London you will need to engage with Blackboard for the majority of your academic activity during your course. This page contains a series of how-to guides and links to content to help you navigate Blackboard. This should be especially helpful if you are with us from another university, since our use of Blackboard will probably differ from your previous experience.

The Blackboard App

The app is a very convenient way to use Blackboard from your personal device, so please ensure you download this for the duration of your London course, as you may need to use this in your classes. Below is a brief video introducing the app.

Blackboard has a useful help page for the app which covers all aspects of using this. Click into the image below to access the page:
