What's APPening

Let's face it. Apps are now an integral part of our everyday lives. We use them to check the weather and check into a flight, to see when the next bus is coming, record notes, read books, play games and much more.

A great outcome of the app revolution is the transformative learning that apps can help foster. There are thousands of education apps in the Windows Store from early learning "games" to study aids and even apps that will help you manage the classroom-- with more being published every day.

To get you started, we've curated a list of 100 education apps that we hope you'll find helpful.
