Building Educational Apps
Tuesday, January 24th - 5PM Eastern Time
 
In This Session
Many people in the educational community are beginning to discover that apps for mobile devices are the "next big thing".  Recent surveys have revealed that people spend significantly more time (a ratio of 4:1) on their phone/tablet than they do on their "traditional" desktop or laptop.  Many school districts are unpacking their new tablets and/or iPods with excitement, but then saying "What do we do now?"  The answer lies in educational apps.  Wouldn't it be great if you could build your OWN educational apps, and tailor them to the learning needs of YOUR students?
 
Shannon will look at "free" and "paid" app-building software - and discuss the pros and cons of each.  He will also let you inside his app-making laboratory to unlock the secrets of building the perfect app.  Tune in on Tuesday, January 24th at 5pm Eastern Time to harness the power of this exciting new technology!
