Apps in Education
Well I do not have a smart phone. So, I guess one could say I have a dumb phone(see pic on left). Did I really just write that? I am not very familiar with apps at all. My phone is an old Razor. I am definitely in need of upgrade and possibly a new carrier. I hear friends, colleagues, and many others talking about “apps”. I am too cheap to pay for the internet on my cell phone. Or am I the smart cautious one? The cell providers are always trying to lure you into a contract, and later whip out the list of fine print that was agreed upon.
I know of one app that would benefit me if I had an iPad or iPhone. It is for basketball coaches to draw up plays. I first heard about it from the high school basketball coach. This looked useful to me. I am sure once I gain access apps will benefit me in my teaching and coaching profession.
After looking at the lists of apps I am curious. How do you create or invent apps? It looks like there are many uses. Book Pro and Number line caught my eye. With one you can create a book with advanced features. The other one can help teach math skills to students. Apps could be beneficial for educational use.
