Science App Review – Science 9

–

Problem: You are in science class, and no matter what the teacher says or what methods they’re using, you still don’t understand the lesson! You’ve been searching all over the internet, in your textbook, and asking all your friends for some help, but you still have no clue what’s going on!

Dream: I wish that there could be an app, or some type of website, that could easily explain to me the things that I am learning in science. Ways that aren’t too complex, and methods of learning that cater to my type of learning.

Deliver: I am very fond of the app/website ‘Khan Academy’. It specializes in science and math departments. They make short 5-15 minute videos, explaining PERFECTLY almost every unit in science. There’s not much going around in those videos so you can concentrate, the voice in the video is clear and very understandable. Also, the narrator in the video uses very easy to understand terms, and put the lesson in a relatable way so that you can understand. Delivering personal experiences, and adding some humor, and ‘fun’ bits into the video, really help enhance my learning.

Debrief: ‘Khan Academy’ is an amazing app that you can download on your phone, but, it is also a website that you can access whenever you want. You can find basically any subject of science that you are struggling with, and the videos that they post to help you learn are very useful. I would recommend this app/website to anyone that is struggling in understanding and dealing with certain areas of science.
