Educreations is a whiteboard app that can be used to record a educator’s voice and handwriting to produce a video for review purposes. It is useful for learners with learning difficulties, who after going through the topic one-on-one with the educator, need to do further review on their own for full comprehension. Teachers can also make tutorial videos and share them with their class in real time. They can also monitor learner development by asking for learner opinions.

What Users Dislike About the App

“The only problem is that iPad is needed and not everybody can afford it.”

“Worst piece of software that I have ever encountered”

“I suggest that teachers should stop forcing students to use this piece of software. Its user interface is horrible and wastes a lot of time for kids.”

“I thought that this app lacks the razzle dazzle of other more expensive versions of the same thing.”

“I did not enjoy the fact that work could not be saved until it was completed. Sometimes the students do not finish an assignment and it can be very frustrating to work so diligently and then have to start over. “
