As is the case once every week, EdTech and mLearning features a collection of some educational iPad apps that have gone free. Again, these deals are available at least in the Canadian and American iTunes App Stores. We are not sure if this is the case with iTune Stores in other parts of the world. The list we curated for you today include apps for learning guitar basics, remotely control your Mac through iPad, learn basic math skills and many more.
1- Remote Mouse for iPad
‘Remote Mouse turns your iPhone, iPad or iPod into a wireless user-friendly remote control for your Mac / PC. It’ll surprise you with fully simulated touchpad, keyboard and featured remote panels which make your remote experience simple and efficient.’
2- Guitar Basics For Dummies
‘A feature-packed app to get you playing real (or at least recognizable) music fast. You don’t have to read music to play the guitar. Starting with the basics of the guitar and moving to practicing all the chords, you can pick up on everything you need to understand and play the guitar. With a built-in electronic tuner and metronome/drum tracks included in this app, Guitar Basics For Dummies is the first (and maybe only) guitar app you’ll need.’
3- Mystery Math Museum

‘Zentries is made with love, and designed a quick and easy way to tell your story. Or several of them if you like.
