Do you want to take advantage of the "screencasting" potential of mobile devices? Jeff Dunn at Edudemic points his readers to Jonathan Wylie's Learnist board of top scoring screencasting apps.
"Most of these apps are multi-platform and run on both iOS and Android. Be sure to do a bit of research into your chosen app before you continue, of course. Read customer reviews and see what people are saying right now."
