Thus, the real cost for this App would be the purchase of an iPad for each student as well the cost of the App. For a class with up to 12 students in UK British Council Accredited schools, this would not be viable. Still it is an interesting concept and would be appropriate for selected schools.Martin Sketchleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03668149905398851835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4314941629795542873.post-38183446248886089612011-10-07T21:18:20.554+01:002011-10-07T21:18:20.554+01:00This looks like a very good idea.

As an app, it's great, and if that aspect were to be fixed, I can really see the benefit.<br /><br />I know that right now, for my students, I just post the .pdf's online, and they can browse through them as they wish as class goes on.Alexanderhttp://www.8mmprojector.orgnoreply@blogger.com
