Memory Trainer for Mobile/Cell Phone

Memory Trainer for Mobile/Cell Phone

Memory Trainer

It has been recently scientifically proven that regular mental exercise can significantly improve your memory and this app has been designed to do just that (and be tons of fun as well). In particular, Memory Trainer works out your spatial memory, working memory, focus and concentration skills.
Frequent memory exercises, like the ones in Memory Trainer, help to strengthen and improve your memory.
This was proven in a UCLA study in 2006, published in the American Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry, which you can read here (http://goo.gl/aiBg). Another benefit of training your memory is that it lowers your risk of Alzheimer's disease. Exercises that keep your mind active, tone your mental muscle and keep your brain healthy.

Mobile Learning & Geography

Mobile Learning & Geography

The ‘world in your pocket’ is how the advertising usually goes. With mobile devices now being able to offer better connectivity, we are always connected to the world, wherever we may be. But just how literal that saying becomes is apparent when we look at the ways in which mobile learning can be used in the subject of geography.

Geo Mobile Apps
Applications like Google Earth on mobile devices, enable users to visualize and understand land formations, land use, map location details and directional information. GPS apps help students know where they are and understand concepts like latitude and longitude in a spatial environment. With these apps available to view anytime and anywhere, geographical studies become a personal exploration, making it more interactive and exciting...

Mobile Learn for Android, BlackBerry and Apple iOS

When my friends and I first launched iStanford, we never knew exactly where our project would go. It started with a simple question from a university official who asked us “how can we put our campus on the iPhone?” Fast forward a couple years and now we’re working with over 100 institutions worldwide on customized apps just like iStanford. And it’s cool to think that the ideas we came up with are now helping students find their way around campuses we’ll never see, check directories, and catch up on news and ...

Here is a greatly produced spelling app. 15 panels of farm animals and objects with words from 3 to 5 letters. Ideal for kids between 3 and 5 that are starting to manage spelling and will be able to identify among others the correct letters to build the words.

District to Give iPads to Fifth Graders

District to Give iPads to Fifth Graders

"This is an experiment," he said. "It is to see if this is a new way of teaching and of learning. You are going to be a part of something that hasn't been done before." The district has purchased about 100 of the devices which connect to the internet wirelessly. The approximate retail price for each iPad is around $500.
  
According to Nagler, California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger launched a "ripple effect across the country" with his Free Digital Textbook Initiative, where schools are able to cost-effectively incorporate technology into academia. Nagler feels his iPad initiative will aid a "new generation of students," helping them learn the skills necessary for their futures.
