Measurement App

Here I am again!

For today I have something related to the application of technology inside math classes, in this case these are apps where some concepts of measure are worked out.

During my recent practice period I have seen that the mixture of technology-kids is a good option for boosting the pupils´ interest in any subject, for the reason that they need something that attract their attention for long period of time in order to be capable of made significant learning success. In addition, if we regarded what is needed to work on in our current law we will realize that it is necessary to give them a try. Therefore, a good option for dealing with both demands could be the use of smart devices, where there can be apps for different purposes and uses. 

Taking what I have just said into account I have been looking for apps (related to measurement) where it needn´t to pay anything for its use or it has a heavy management for kids. So I have chosen one apps due to the fact that it is the most interesting above the others ones for different reasons, but mostly since it is free.

Cambio de Unidades con la Srta. Athenea 

It is for Android system, here you are introduced to measurement unit’s concept beginning with a brief introduction, some practice and lastly a test where you have to prove all what you have learnt. In addition, it is worked through comparisons where pupils can see better the transition between different units. Furthermore, you can modulate its demanding for this reason it is an interesting tool for all learning styles since it can be adapted to each of them.

Besides that it can be use as a  reinforcement tool, where kids can keep practicing on their weaknesses. In addition, it will be solve many doubts that can arise during this topic since it carries testing on.

That´s all for today! 

See you in the next post!
