Kid Recorder - Show #38

Grade Level: Toddler / Kindergarten

Program Functionality: A / Works as advertised.

Purpose: B / There is some potential here for future thought but I have to admit that I am confused by the choice of the barn with the animals used. Didn't know a turtle really had a sound either!

Overall Educational Value: C+ / There is some potential here but they just haven't hit the mark completely.

Cost: $0.99

Recommendation: We are recommending this app for personal use as my kids liked hearing their voice etc. I was intrigued by how I could record their thoughts on the animals as well. I just can't recommend it for schools at this time.

So what is your criteria for grading. I was at the ISTE session to share apps and I remember this was gone over but it would be nice to post on this site somewhere what the grading criteria is for a proper app review.
