Mobile and offline learning tools
I have not looked at these solutions just yet, but thought I'd share anyway. Some teachers do have situations where technology is very limited and online learning is a greater challenge than most would appreciate. During this time, with schools closed, here are some mobile and offline learning tools:
Systems purpose-built for mobile phones
-
Cell-Ed – Learner-centered, skills-based learning platform with offline options.
-
Eneza Education - Revision and learning materials for basic feature phones.
-
Funzi – Mobile learning service that supports teaching and training for large groups.
-
KaiOS – Software that gives smartphone capabilities to inexpensive mobile phones and helps open portals to learning opportunities.
-
Ubongo – Uses entertainment, mass media, and the connectivity of mobile devices to deliver localized learning to African families at low cost and scale.
-
Ustad Mobile – Access and share educational content offline.
