5 Apps that will make learning a piece of cake!

Psychologists say that 50 percent of class time is spent managing behaviour rather than delivering instructions. Given it is a single class period, one can save a lot of precious time through this app. It helps teachers improve behaviour in their classrooms quickly and easily by generating behaviour data that can then be shared with parents and administrators. This also gives regular notifications to students to help them improve on their own.

This app is designed for teachers ‘on the go’ so that they can assess students’ performance throughout the lesson. The different colours give you a pictorial view of the different progress report of each student. Thus you can direct your questions and support accordingly to each individual or a group. This automatically keeps track of each student which is a pretty cumbersome task, especially if the teacher student ratio is not balanced.

Gone are the days of reading traditional books in old fashion. Welcome to the age of Subtext. This app takes you beyond highlighters and bookmarks. You can annotate, create quizzes around the e-books and also create discussions, public or private about it. You can label a section as a literary element like ‘foreshadowing’ or ‘personification’. What more? You can even design your own bookshelf.
