I\u2019d like to recommend you check out Balefire Labs, an app review service, because they have very solid objective metrics for determining the learning elements within content apps. We know not all edtech is actually educational (talking specifically about instructional apps). Content apps have their place, to be sure; but I have decided to only use adaptive, mastery based apps because these individualize instruction. Not all apps that use the word \u201cadaptive\u201d mean they adapt to learners levels of mastery. Check out their metrics and see what you think. http:\/\/www.balefirelabs.com<\/a><\/p>\n
