Download
An Entire Term in One Click
Rather than downloading each announcement and file individually, Backpack lets you download a whole course, even a whole term with a single click!
Auto Updates
Agilix Backpack saves your login, so you don’t have to waste time signing in and checking multiple pages every time you want to see what’s new. Backpack lists all your updates for the last 7 days, by course, on a single screen.
Blackboard Always Ready
Backpack works like an e-mail client for Blackboard. It stores and organizes all your Blackboard materials so you can access it quickly even if your school's server is running slow or you don't have an Internet connection.
Quick Switching Course Tabs
Backpack creates a Course Tab for every course your download from Blackboard. With course tabs, you can quickly switch between courses instead of hitting the back button several times to reach the main menu. Plus you can store all your relevant personal files and notes under the same tab.

Compile Print-Free Research
Backpack can turn web pages, PDF's, Word documents, PowerPoint presentations, class handouts, and more into digital paper, which you can highlight and annotate just like printed paper.
Annotate Digitally
Take notes directly on your professor's presentation or class handout using a computer keyboard or stylus. Sketch charts and diagrams, add tables or shapes right alongside your typed notes.
Auto-Outliner
Quickly record lecture notes in auto-outline mode. Use bullets or numbers and quickly navigate up to six level deep with tabs and back tabs.
Power Find
Search every typed, downloaded, even handwritten word from one place. Refine searches by course, category, type and/or folders. Use it to quickly outline papers or study for exams.
Answer Flags
Flag key concepts, questions, and to-do's. Even create custom flags so you can immediately locate important information. Use flags to quickly create your own flash cards, answer keys, or crib sheets.

What's & Why's
About Agilix Backpack
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| One click to rule them all.
|
While it may be necessary to walk half a mile to a fist full of buildings to attend all your classes, you only need to click once to get all your Blackboard content. One click downloads all your announcements and files. One click schedules your entire term calendar. And one click switches between courses each organized under its own course tab and with its own color code and calendar.
|
|
|
|
|
| Weren't computers invented to do that?
|
Now Backpack can hunt down and seize the answers for you anywhere in your Backpack database. Backpack will find it whether it’s in your lecture notes, a Blackboard file, your Internet research, a PowerPoint slide, your margin comments, anywhere.
|
|
|
|
|
| Printing is so 90's.
|
|
|
Once the information hits the inkjet you’ve condemned its future and your marginal comments to a dead-end sheet of paper. Print to Backpack Capture and keep the digital spirit alive. Use your keyboard, mouse, or table stylus to write in the margins, highlight, add shapes, diagrams, and more. You can still send it and search it, comments and all.

|
| Sleep beats the best caffeine rush.
|
Stop trembling through all night study sessions while washing down caffeine tablets with a skinny metal can of power soda. Get on top of your schedule with color-coded course calendars for each class and master calendar to review the full picture by day, week, or month.
|
|
|
|
|
| Everything you need; only what you need.
|
The Internet is a lovely, distracting place. Maintain focus by getting your Blackboard content automatically delivered straight to your Backpack tabs without ever opening a browser or questions about celebrity legs or prize winning announcements popping up.

| No fact is an island.
|
|
|
The elusive crib sheet of all those formulas from your freshman year, the fondly remembered research paper template from English 101. Lost in the frightening abyss of decomposing chip crumbs, broken rubber bands, and scrunched up paper. Now your entire education can be organized in a searchable location that you can take with you wherever you go on campus and after you graduate.
