Tech It Up Tuesday: Get Homework Help with Snapsolve
Appy Tuesday, everyone! As you may have guessed from the greeting, this week’s edition of Tech It Up Tuesday focuses on a pretty neat mobile app, one that has just been released on the edtech scene. And it goes something like this:
Hey, difficult homework assignments! You’ve met your match! Yep, thanks to a newly released iOS app called Snapsolve, students can get instant homework help for any grade level or topic any day, anytime , anywhere. And it works something like this:
Just snap a picture of the challenging homework problem, optionally include additional info that will assist with solving the question and press send. The image is then relayed to one of thousands of highly qualified tutors, who within about 15 minutes on average, not only provides the answer but a customized explanation as to how the problem was solved.
And you thought this stuff only happened on the Jetsons! Seriously, with its interactive and collaborative capabilities, this app takes homework helper to a new level!
And just so you know: Snapsolve is currently available for the iPhone only, but plans are in the works to develop versions of the software for iPad, Android and OS X devices.
Also, the app is a freebie and so are answers to simple math problems. However, there are pricing tiers based on question difficulty and wait time for responses that range from $1.99 (the Decaf option) to $9.99 (the Energy Drink option). Regardless of the amount, all paid selections have a money back guarantee if the services rendered are deemed unsatisfactory.
Snap, send, solve… End of story!
Classroom Connection:
If you’re a math teacher, Snapsolve is a great resource to share with all of your students. You might even find that it’s a pretty cool app for your own use as well!
