Accuteach lets you upload and share lessons, blog, chat, create a calendar of events, share videos and connect with your whole school community. Read more
"The dog ate my homework" just won't wash with Schoolrack
My word how school life has changed! At the risk of giving my age away I was at school in the days before even photocopiers were a widespread part of a teacher’s kit. I can still remember the smell of the duplicating ink on the History hand-outs. As for the excuses about why a particularly nasty piece of homework was missing well, leaving it on the bus was about as original as I got. It follows then that a site like Schoolrack would have seemed as far away as a manned expedition to Mars but educational software has now got one ... Read more

This app really could keep you out of jail...
As distance learning courses go this is a very interesting one but one that caters for an important need none the less. In this respect I think it does a pretty good job. We live in slightly more enlightened times these days when it comes to some types of crime and for a lot of misdemeanours a brief educational course rather than a spell in prison is often the outcome of a Court hearing. This one, as the title clearly indicates, is aimed at stopping those found guilty of theft from re-offending. The meaning of the word theft in this instance covers ... Read more
Free comparison shopping tool for movies and tv shows
Every single DVD retailer these days seems to have it's own pricing policy on individual titles. Some will use individual titles as a loss leader while some will buy large amounts of stock on a good selling title when it hits the right price. Yet quite often, if you just do a straight order on a specific title it will come back to you at the full list price. It makes far more sense to see who is selling it the cheapest at any given time without having to do all the leg work. Watchily compares the price and availability ... Read more

There are quite a lot of sites around matching people who need information to relevant experts and this follows similar lines to a lot of them. In this case though the emphasis is on gaining instruction so if you want lessons in Arabic or mathematics or perhaps would like to know how to create a Wiki you can search and find an instructor willing to teach you online. Being a two-way arrangement it follows then that you can sign up to instruct or sign up to learn. Anyone looking for instruction can search by the tags or enter a subject or ... Read more
A welcome addition to any educational establishment
Don’t let the name of this one fool you. If you thought it was merely an alternative to the old school register then you need to take a closer look. It does have an updated version of that function of course but it also has a host of features that make it an all-round campus management system. Whether you run a school, college or university it will help you streamline a lot of the processes that have historically taken up valuable teaching time. What’s more it has a level of collaboration attached to it that enables students and their parents to ... Read more
Tips for wannabe management consultants
Having access to the question paper before sitting an exam would obviously give you a considerable advantage but few of us have ever had that luxury. It strikes me as slightly comical therefore that a group of business school students have got together to develop a site that aims to give you the answers to questions that might arise when you’re being interviewed for a management consultant post.

Another social network but with new business opportunities
Clingle is what's known as a geo-social mobile check-in tool and adds a bit of very cool spice to your text messages. With Clingle you can send a private message so that the recipient gets their note in the form of text, photo or video either immediately or when they check-in at a restaurant, hotel or event.

Send free video messages to anybody
While text messages are simple and easy to send, sometimes it would definitely be more advantageous to be able to send a more personal video version of a message to your friends or customers. Vimessa allows you to send free video messages to your friends anywhere in the world, even if they do not have an iPhone. Vimessa is a free video voicemail app for the iPhone that allows consumers to send high-definition video messages to any mobile phone number or email address. And, unlike other video messaging services like FaceTime, iMessage and MMS the app works on all mobile ... Read more
Build student reports via templated comments
I have to say when I first looked through this app I was a little concerned that teachers could just pick from a set of pre-loaded comments to appraise the students in their care.I had a fleeting moment of forgetfulness I suppose because thinking back to my pre-computer schooldays things were pretty much the same. Well they were in the case of my math teacher who could have saved himself a lot of time by getting a couple of rubber stamps made containing the phrases, "is easily distracted" or "could do better."With practically every other activity you can think of now made easier ...
