My Take
This App is is AWESOME! It allows tremendous flexibility based on the learners needs to experience, learn, & explore while meeting the NETS (National Educational Technology Standards) with CCSS (Common Core Student Standards).
How I Use It
I teach the use of the print dictionary first and then the "E" version. The students are able to explore the App; learn to pronounce; and get the "word of the day". This creates active learning by creating discussions and increasing word vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension.
