Tuesday's Techy Tip
App of the week
Study Blue
It has a feature where you can search your textbook by ISBN to see if there are materials to upload from your textbook. If not, you can make flashcards for definitions, list of items to learn, formulas, dates, etc or upload notes.
You can put items on the app under your class or students can create study cards.
You can also search various subjects and find cards already made on many subjects.
Whether we like to admit it or not, students use their phones for many things. If they download this app, they could study the flash cards on their phones during long bus rides, or when they have down time away from school. If they download the app on their iPad, they can do the same thing at school.
This app will also give you stats on how many you guessed right and which items you need to study more.
It is used by many high school and college students and comes recommended by college students everywhere.
