Coupled with internet connectivity, they enable us keep in touch and stay connected to an infinitely large and all-encompassing stream of information. The most used method of accessing this information is via the use of Apps; from social networking apps to religious ones. Consequently, the part of this information that enable us learn a thing or two are best highlighted by educational apps. These apps; which have been gaining more popularity recently, enable us filter useful information, learn a thing or two, and positively influence our Intelligence Quotient. Interested in learning something new, or just want to add to your knowledge base? No problem! As long as you are not trying to learn something extremely specialized (e.g. carrying out a Caesarean section) then my app selection has got you covered. Check out the best learning apps for you. 1. Duolingo Duolingo is one of the most popular educational apps to every hit the Google Play Store and at 4.8/5.0 after thousands of ratings it also doubles as one of the most highly rated. The app is a great way to learn and practice a new language as it extensively supports eight international languages. It is beautifully designed with nice colours and also has a web version you can access anytime. It is very easy to use and two magic words – completely free. 2. Merriam Webster Dictionary This is my personal favourite as well as one of the best dictionaries you can get on mobile. The Merriam Webster Dictionary goes beyond being merely a dictionary. It comes equipped with antonyms and synonyms for words, as wells as thousands of example sentences both for American and British English. It also comes with extensive audio support including all words and example sentences. The app also comes with a word of the day widget. The fluidness and effectiveness of this app as well as it non-intrusive nature sets it above other dictionary apps 3. Khan Academy Videos Khan Academy is an online education platform which is completely free to use. The platform uses a system of micro lectures (currently has over 4,000) for teaching complex graduate level topics. These micro lectures break down complex university topics into formats that can be easily understood by people without extensive knowledge in the area. A large number of subject areas under science, economics, math, computing, etc. are covered. 4. Daily Art Daily Art spotlights an educational field that is often neglected; Fine Art, and does it via an Educational app. Everyday a new work of art is published along with it details; author, date of creation, importance and other info. In this technology driven times the artistic heritage we possess as humans are often neglected. Daily Art seeks to correct that and passively reignites the appreciation of artwork in you. 5. Clock Work Brain One of the best brain teasers available anywhere, period! This games help you challenge yourself with a number of addictive mini-games designed to test your memory, calculation skills, perception, logic and reflexes. The presentation and execution is perfect with nice graphics and excellent musical track choices. This is unlike any brain-training game you’ve come across. 6. NASA app The NASA app serves as a window to the latest news, pictures, and videos from the world premier space research body. With over 14,000 pictures, large number of videos, featured content, news and live streaming from satellites, the app is the ultimate tool to keep in touch with the Earth’s atmosphere and the outlying space. The NASA apps in a must have for space lovers and others interested in some part of Space science. 7. TED talks Ted talks is a platform with talks from the largest collection of interesting speakers available. Ted talks cover a broad range of subjects from inspirational, creativity, motivation to human psychology. The speakers that feature on this network are the bomb. This network presents the user with vast insight and information on very interesting, peculiar and even bizarre topic. TED talk is guaranteed to positively affect your knowledge base. This app is one I just can’t do without due to the vastness invaluable information available. 8. YouTube This list would not be complete without the King/Queen of tutorials and how-tos videos. YouTube has a gargantuan amount of videos, with months of videos uploaded every week. If there’s a how-to for anything odds are its available on YouTube. The YouTube app makes search for and streaming of videos from mobile extremely easy. 9. ….. Have any app you think should be on this list but isn’t? Comment below.

tonyx4x44:Last time i checked, 1gb worth of data goes for about 1.5k to 2k. How is that affordable for an average Nigerian student? I was given 10mb yesterday and till now i can't explain how the data mysteriously exhausted itself . Well for me, i RUN away from apps that require internet connectivity because i can't afford to spend more than 2k a month that that probably won't last for 2weeks (data shaving). Won't i eat and buy school. materials? I currently spend #600 every month on data and that is way too expensive for me. |

Smartphones have becoming an essential part of today's world. This is as a result of the limitless functionality they put within our reach. Man's new best friend can help him stay in touch, read on the go, enhance productivity in the work environment, and soon. This potential limitless functionality constitutes a problem in it own vein, as a the high satisfaction derived often leads to overuse and addiction. Self control Apk help to checkmate this problems and restore balance to our mobile phone use. Mobile phone addiction may seem harmless at first, but often constitute serious problems as time goes on. According to Wikipedia Some mobile phone users exhibit problematic behaviour related to substance use disorders, such as preoccupation with mobile communication, excessive money or time spent on mobile phones, use of mobile phones in socially or physically inappropriate situations such as driving an auto-mobile, use leading to adverse effects on relationships, increased time on mobile communication, and anxiety if separated from a mobile phone or sufficient signal. This in essence equates the symptoms and consequences of mobile phone addiction with addiction to unpopular hard substances. Self Control Apk for Android This app helps you to reduce excessive use of mobile phones. Self control apk achieves this goal by creating a blocking mechanism stops the use of apps during specified periods. Over a given period of time the execution of apps on the device are banned in order to help you focus on productive tasks at hand. Basic telephony functions such as calls, SMS, and other apps that are excluded from within the app are always available. I will recommend that you exclude your best productivity apps and any other app that may be important to you functioning, say at work, from the block net. self-control-apk-screenshots Key Features 1. When you execute Apps for a specified period of time, phone screen will switch to studying time display automatically. 2. After setting weekly and daily, graphs can be displayed. 3. Specific apps that you set can be always executable. Download free version from here Source: www.boyantech.com/self-control-apk/ +download links 1 Like |
