Purpose of IEAR.org - I Education Apps Review.org

disclaimer.jpg


I Education Apps Review's goal and or focus is to take a look at practical, useful, and educationally sound ways to use the IPhone or ITouch in the classroom. The IPhone, ITouch and other similar devices are amazing pieces of technology. We believe that these devices have a place in today's classroom as long as they are utilized properly.

We do not intend to bash application developers or their applications with our reviews. We intend to take a closer look at these educationally marketed applications in the education category or the educational / game category in the ITunes Store to make a determination as to the value of their impact in education. We would also like to expand a little beyond this category and talk about applications not marketed as educational to see if they can make an impact in the classroom.

After discussing key information about the application such who created them and how much, we intend to demonstrate each of the applications via the video podcast. After the demonstration, we will then evaluate the application as to its educational value. Each application will get a "Grade Level" attached to it and a grade for "Purpose", "Program Functionality", and Educational Value. Finally, we will make a decision on whether or not to recommend the application for personal use and school use.

Readers and viewers are reminded that the opinions expressed by us at I Education Apps Review or IEAR.org, and the results published in connection with reviews carried out on these educational apps are confined to, and representative of, our opinions solely. We fully accept that others may completely disagree with our recommendations and grades. As always, more than one opinion is important.

Furthermore, our opinions at IEAR.org are ours alone and they do not represent our employers in any fashion. However, no warranty is made as to disclaimer the accuracy or completeness of any information on this site IEAR.org accepts no responsibility or liability for any inaccuracy or errors and omissions, or for any damage or injury to persons or property arising out of the accessing or use of any information posted on our website.

If we make a mistake or have any inaccuracies, we promise to diligently fix them, but please note that we have only positive intentions with our reviews!
