Educational Applications for the iPhone
Currently, staff at education4u
headquarters are hard at work developing a range of educational applications that will run on the iPhone or iPod touch.
At education4u, we believe that, as educators, we must make every effort to engage students in their learning - and what
better way to do it than via their mobile phones or music devices.
There a number of applications currently in
development, including:
- A times table game, that will encourage understanding of times tables.
- A list of useful mathematical and physical constants
- A game that tests users on their knowledge of important dates in Australian and World History.
These applications will be on sale soon from iTunes and the App Store. Be sure to search for education4u
