Many apps are specially designed for use on a large screen in front of the class. They support teaching and learning in an innovative and fun way.
Edtools is great. It makes my school days easier. My favorite app – and the one I use the most - is «Homework». I can enter the assignments days in advance. The students see it on the whiteboard and write it in their agenda. If children are sick, I can mark them and they can check what they missed. There is no extra explanation necessary.
