Glide is a free tool for making your own mobile apps. It’s a tool that has quickly risen to the top of my list of favorite tools for teachers and students. It’s a tool that we’ll spend time using during the Practical Ed Tech Summer Camp. With Glide anyone who can make a spreadsheet in Google Sheets can make his or her own mobile app. Via John Evans

Thanks to better university communications and timely interventions, college freshmen are poised for success. ------------------------------------------------------------- First-year students are desperate for information on everything from class schedules to financial aid when they arrive on campus. A recent survey found that 48 percent of college students reported more satisfaction from using a mobile app to find information, rather than a university website, Campus Technology reports. To give new (and old) students an easier way to connect with the information they need, Shawnee State University partnered with higher education app developer OOHLALA Mobile to create an app that helps students organize their classes, assignments and events, as well as engage in discussions. “At Shawnee State University, we know connecting students to campus life and support is fundamental to ensuring retention and success,” says Elizabeth Blevins, Shawnee State’s director of communications, in the Campus Technology article. At Sullivan University in Kentucky, former vice president Jim Crick tells University Business that the use of mobile apps helped Sullivan’s three campuses engage with existing and prospective students, thus creating a platform of support before some students even got to campus.

Creating a mobile app can be a great way to get students interested in learning programming concepts and to get them to dive into researching a topic so that they can build the best apps they can. For example, if a student wanted to create an app that serves as a fun review game, he or she would need to have a solid knowledge of the topic in order to create a meaningful app. To that end, here are four free tools that students can use to develop their own mobile apps.

Quite often, we find ourselves focusing on what we can do in our classrooms while using our Chromebooks. I’ve even heard once or twice technology in terms of “Classroom” and “Mobile” technology.
