A free education app for South African matrics

I’m so excited about this free education app for South African matricus that launched today. I’ve written posts before on the great work many corporates are doing to try give our youth better access to technology and improve the standard of education in the country. Today, Gojimo is now available for free download in the Apple App Store and Google Play store.

“Debeli” septembar: Jesen je godišnje doba kada se najviše gojimo

Nakon ljeta, ljudi se malo opuste pa stoga ne čudi što je jesen godišnje doba u kojem se najviše gojimo, utvrdila je britanska studija sprovedena na 2.000 ljudi.

Ljudi u jesen u prosjeku skupe oko 2,2 kilograma, a tokom zime 1,8 kilograma, koje većina skida na postprazničnoj dijeti. Tokom jeseni i zime dani su kraći, pa ljudi više vremena provode pred TV-om i uživaju u grickalicama.

Međutim,…

There is a huge market for educational apps today as they offer a great way for kids to learn while having fun, engaging students in a way that most textbooks cannot. At just 21 years old, Londoner George Burgess aims to take advantage of this booming market. His idea was said to have come about as a 17-year-old student when a geography teacher caught him emailing in class.

In the four years since that time, the young entrepreneur has managed to raise more than $1 million to fund the development of a mobile app focused on helping high school students pass exams. Gojimo was just launched in the U.K. and the U.S. and is now free to download.

Burgess said he realized when studying that while searching for helpful apps there was nothing available. The teacher who caught him emailing, Will Williams, was so interested in the idea that he became involved in the venture, helping to write the content for the first app, which was geography based. He remains involved in Burgess’ company, Education Apps, as an adviser.

Learning through educational apps can be much easier for kids as well as adults. Some are explicitly designed to educate, while others may have secondary educational value. They often allow the user to learn without even realizing it, if the information is presented in a well-designed, enjoyable game.

With the benefits of educational apps becoming more well-known to people across the globe, companies like Education Apps and Playworld Interactive are always trying to develop the next best educational app.

There are fun apps and even games available that can teach kids the basics of investing stocks, bonds and mutual funds to help give them a good head start on their financial future as well as apps that can educate children on the basics like reading, writing and arithmetic and everything in between.

Over the past decade, the use of technology to promote better education has skyrocketed with thousands of educational apps being created to help kids learn in more interactive and entertaining ways. A number of studies have revealed that apps like these promote learning because they are entertaining rather than purely education.
