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
How to build a robot - and other stuff...
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

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 ...

Literacy tool for schools and students
This is not so much an app really but more like a fantastic way for schools to access a veryimportant tool for the improvement of literacy amongst its pupils.This comprehensive testing system is coupled with a number of detailed reports to enableteachers to gauge the true reading age of pupils in their care. It goes without saying thatall of data that ends up on the site is securely encrypted to industry standards. On top ofthat, and consistent with any activity involving minors, anyone with access to it is fully CRBchecked (Criminal Records Bureau).The scale of the tests covers ˈListen and ... Read more
Show Your City
It's fairly easy to get access to information about pretty well any city you'd like to know about. The restaurants! The nightlife! The sights! They are all easy to discover whether it be with a tourist guide or an Internet site. But how do you discover the REAL heart of the place? SideTour is full of interesting and exciting people extolling the virtues of their neighborhood through the many different areas of expertise that they have a passion for. The world is full of vibrant and creative people – artists, actors, chefs, sommeliers, educators, students, explorers, philosophers, shoppers, collectors, ... Read more
Explore our world and share yours
There are lots of travel guides and tourist books around but they’re generally written by expert writers or a country’s own tourist board so to get the views of ordinary people who have been there as well as people who live there gives a great personal insight. Read more
Does that place have bedbugs? Check or report here!
I must be one of the luckiest people around. I’ve travelled a bit both for business and pleasure purposes but I’ve never had the misfortune to be eaten alive by bedbugs! I’m not quite sure what the people behind this site hope to achieve but I suppose they are providing a public service of some kind. Having said that I do think their mission to "report and follow bedbug information around the world" could be just slightly bordering on the over ambitious. There are a number of ways of interpreting the activity (or lack of it) on the site and some are ... Read more
