At BETT in January I launched two Periodic Tables, one for AR and VR which I collaborated on with Steve Bambury and this second table, focused upon apps for learning. It is not the same as the AR and VR table. Whilst both tables are broken down into categories, the…
One of the reasons I started organising Teachmeets many moons ago was because I wanted to give myself the opportunity to present in front of my peers without my knees knocking, sweating and feeling full of imposter syndrome – if I’m honest, it still happens now but through practice comes…
I regularly say that every day is a learning day and I learned something new and something that I had clearly missed, recently. I can’t remember how I learned about the trackpad feature on your iOS keyboard but I was sure I had seen it in on some Apple web page…

There’s no getting away from it, Microsoft’s focus on driving new technologies forward to help those with accessibility needs have been pretty groundbreaking in recent times. The Immersive Reader that works within Office Lens is one such example. Simply take a photo of a document within Office Lens and have…
Something I often struggle to do is to find meaningful videos to use as backgrounds. A while ago I found a great app which you can use to turn your previously taken photos into animated looped videos, simply by tweaking a few elements in your image. Here’s an example of…
The recent periodic table of iOS apps for AR & VR I created alongside Steve Bambury has been very popular. One of the apps that feature on the table in the ‘Story Telling’ section is a free app called Figment AR which is free and suitable for ages from 4+ according…
