Thinking Mobile (by Kerri at SCLS)

4/13/2017

0 Comments

 
This afternoon I pulled up my feed reader and tried to catch up with various blogs I follow. This took me to 3 wonderful posts on the TechSoup for Libraries blog (have I mentioned how much I LOVE the TechSoup blog?) that all had me thinking about mobile devices:
  • Making Mobile Devices and Computers Easier to Use for Seniors, Part 1 - Magnification
  • Making Mobile Devices and Computers Easier to Use for Seniors, Part 2 - Text and Icon Enhancements
  • What We've Bookmarked This Month: Libraries Resist, Mind/Shift Librarian-Approved Apps, and a Farewell to Fines
If you're looking for program ideas for helping seniors (or even 45-year olds who need bifocals) make their devices easier to see and use, those first two might be a nice place to start.
The last post has all sorts of interesting links, one of which took me to this article that lists "30 Ed-Tech Apps to Inspire Creativity and Creation." There are some apps here that I've heard of (Aviary and Google Slides, for example) and others that I can't wait to look into (Adobe Capture, LEGO Movie Maker)!
