What Users Love About the App
“This application will allow me to give my upper grade level students (6-8) the chance to report online their fitness or activity when they do not have class. This application also allows for me to link them to videos to watch in regards to Health, Body, Activities, and How-To videos. It also allows me to use multiple lessons with multiple grades by an easy access code. This seems like it is also a great place to encourage parent involvement.”
“A great web tool/iPad app that allows teachers to create content on the web and then share it w/ students on an iPad while doing instant assessments.”
“I gave it 5 stars because my students love it and they are learning more by using it. Support is responsive and positive…they seem genuinely interested in the purpose of the app: student learning.”
“Interesting app. Does not seem to be fully developed yet. For instance, there is no landscape mode. Seems like a very promising app though as long as they continue to develop it.”
What Users Dislike About the App
“The only thing that I am still working on is figuring out how to send the assignments to appear when my students access them. This is taking a bit more time than I thought.”
“Once I fill out my information and hit register, it says Error!! Yes, with multiple exclamation marks and no reason as to why my entered information is causing an error.”
“You have to register to use it. When you register (it is free to register) you have to agree to a long list of stuff, one of which is that they can sell, lend, loan … all of the materials you create. Really? Guess that is the price of the free app. That really turned me off. Didn’t agree to all of those conditions and deleted the app.”
