Our students have been showing off their creative sides! A recent mobile app project had students brainstorming a concept, designing the logo and formulating a marketing strategy.
Here are three apps we heard about:
📚 BookTalk: For book lovers and writers, this app allows you to post on a social media feed, rate books, join a book club, and so much more!
🥇 My Gym Judge: Upload a video of your gymnastics practice, and the app will judge your performance. You will also get tips to improve and new moves to try.
🐴 Rodeo Outlet Company: Everything you need related to rodeos, all in one place. You can shop for your favorite products and brands.
