Teachers Can Make Dynamic Presentations with bContext
PowerPoint presentations, while useful for businesses and professional conferences, aren’t always ideal for educational situations. More often than not, students simply do not find themselves engaged while staring at static lists and bullet points. Cool product bContext aims to help with this issue with their iPad app. The application allows teachers to upload static file types such as PDFs and PowerPoint presentations and then transform those documents into interactive presentations. When a user uploads a document onto their iPad to use it in the bContext app, the app lets teachers mark up the document with their own handwriting. Rather than requiring expensive projector equipment or smart pen technology, bContext offers teachers a cheap solution for interacting with their presentations through markup and added notes. Teachers can make notes on their PowerPoint presentation or PDF files as they discuss them in class, creating a more dynamic experience that teachers can use to get students interested. Teachers who have problems transferring their documents to their tablet will need iPad support to get the app to work properly. Read more »
