School Reports
After marking the attempts at poetry written by earnest and self-conscious pupils I should think writing end of term school reports comes a close second in terms of both the cringe and mirth factors. Still, with a system such as Matrep, teachers will no longer have to continuously hand write comments like "must try harder" or "is a disruptive influence" if they add them to the site’s ˈpre-filledˈ feature.

Find online and campus degree programs
In a certain month every year the newsagents around the world have been engulfed by students and parents (mostly parents, I might add) waiting for the latest issue of the guide to Universities and Colleges to ensure they collectively choose the most appropriate educational opportunity available. They would walk out of the shop with a thick book which was the equivalent of a small forest. These days, however, there are many online options too. Petap is an free education guide for accredited online and campus degrees, schools, colleges and universities across the USA and Canada. According to a recent ... Read more

Education collaboration for students and teachers alike
Accuteach is the beginning of a new way of schooling developed by real classroom teachers from Atlanta, Georgia. It's an education and teaching app that is aimed at bringing teachers, students and parents into a much more collaborative environment than conventional teaching. 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
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
Spill is an anonymous peer-to-peer support system online for college students.
Life on campus can often throw up any number of worrying issues for students. Add to that a feeling of isolation and the worry just intensifies so a site like spillnow.com is a worthy model for all students to get to know. Read more
Code It Online
So much of a pilot's training these days is done through flight simulators. How will a novice pilot know how to react if something goes wrong than by putting them through the worst case scenario situation of a plane crash. Programr is virtually a flight simulator for computer programmers. It's the world's very first online learning social computer laboratory for the computer programmer. Read more
